36、nd CY24 and increasing to 1.8%in CY25.The projection for CY24 and CY25 remains unchanged compared to the April 2024 WEO Update.The United States is expected to see growth rise to 2.6%in CY24,followed by a slight slowdown to 1.9%in CY25.This deceleration is attributed to gradual fiscal tightening and
37、 labor market softening,which dampen aggregate demand.The CY24 projection has been revised downward by 0.1 percentage points since the April CY24 WEO Update.This revision primarily reflects carryover effects from stronger-than-expected growth in the fourth quarter of CY23,with some of this momentum
38、expected to continue into CY24.The Euro Areas growth is anticipated to rebound from its sluggish rate of 0.5%in CY23,mainly influenced by significant exposure to the conflict in Ukraine.Projections indicate an increase to 0.9%in CY24 and further to 1.5%in CY25.This recovery is driven by stronger hou
39、sehold consumption,as the impact of elevated energy prices diminishes and declining inflation bolsters real income growth.Additionally,strong momentum in services,higher than expected net exports,and higher investments have further driven this growth.But,countries like Germany are expected to have a
40、 sluggish recovery on account of weak manufacturing growth.Emerging Market and Developing Economies Group Emerging market and developing economies are forecasted to maintain stable growth at 4.3%in both CY24 and CY25.This forecast has been revised upwards by 0.1 percentage point as compared to the A
41、pril 2024 WEO update on account of stronger activity in Asia,particularly China and India.Growth prospects in economies across the Middle East and Central Asia continue to be weighed down by oil production and regional conflicts.Growth forecast of sub-Saharan Africa has also been revised downward on
42、 account of weak economic activity.Low-income developing countries are anticipated to experience a gradual growth uptick,starting at 3.9%in CY23 and climbing to 4.4%in CY24 and 5.3%in CY25,as certain constraints on near-term growth begin to ease.The economic forecast for emerging and developing Asia
43、 reveals a modest deceleration in growth,with projections indicating a decline from 5.7%in CY23 to 5.4%in CY24 and 5.1%in CY25.Chinas trajectory reflects a slowdown,transitioning from 5.2%in CY23 to 5.0%in CY24 and 4.5%in CY25 due to fading post-pandemic stimuli and ongoing property sector challenge
44、s.In contrast,Indias growth remains robust,with anticipated rates of 7.0%in CY24 and 6.5%in CY25,bolstered by resilient domestic demand and a burgeoning working-age populace.The Indonesian economy is expected to register growth of 5.0%in CY24 and 5.1%in CY25 with a strong domestic demand,a healthy e
45、xport performance,policy measures,and normalization in commodity prices.Saudi Arabias growth slowed at-0.8%in CY23 attributed to lower oil production.CY24 is predicted to see a revamp in the growth rates to 1.7%on account of Vision 2030 reforms that helped advance the countrys economic diversificati
46、on agenda,including through reduced reliance on oil.The forecast for CY24 has been revised downward as compared to the April 2024 WEO update on account of extension of oil production cuts.Going forward,GDP is expected to grow at 4.7%and 4.0%in CY25 and CY26,respectively.On the other hand,Brazils gro
47、wth is projected to ease to 2.1%in CY24,driven by fiscal consolidation,the lingering impact of tight monetary policies,and reduced contributions from the agricultural sector.There has been a downward revision in forecast for CY24 compared to April 2024 WEO update on account of the near-term impact o
48、f flooding.Going forward,GDP is expected to grow at 2.4%in CY25 on account of reconstruction following the floods and supportive structural factors.Despite the turmoil in the last 2-3 years,India bears good tidings to become a USD 5 trillion economy by CY27.According to the IMF dataset on Gross Dome
49、stic Product(GDP)at current prices,the nominal GDP has been at USD 3.6 trillion for CY23 and is projected to reach USD 5.3 trillion by CY27 and USD 6.4 trillion by CY29.Indias expected GDP growth rate for coming years is almost double compared to the world economy.8 Industry Research Report on India
50、n Gems and Jewellery Sector Besides,India stands out as the fastest-growing economy among the major economies.The country is expected to grow at more than 6.5%in the period of CY24-CY29,outshining Chinas growth rate.By CY27,the Indian economy is estimated to emerge as the third-largest economy globa
51、lly,hopping over Japan and Germany.Currently,it is the third-largest economy globally in terms of Purchasing Power Parity(PPP)with a 7.6%share in the global economy,with China 18.7%on the top followed by the United States 15.6%.Purchasing Power Parity is an economic performance indicator denoting th
52、e relative price of an average basket of goods and services that a household needs for livelihood in each country.Despite Covid-19s impact,high inflationary environment,and interest rates globally,and the geopolitical tensions in Europe,India has been a major contributor to world economic growth.Ind
53、ia is increasingly becoming an open economy as well through growing foreign trade.Despite the global inflation and uncertainties,Indian economy continues to show resilience.This resilience is mainly supported by stable financial sector backed by well-capitalized banks and export of services in trade
54、 balance.With this,the growth of Indian economy is expected to fare better than other economies majorly on account of strong investment activity bolstered by the governments capex push and buoyant private consumption,particularly among higher income earners.1.2 Trend in Global Inflation rate Since 2
55、022,inflation has been falling for all major global economies following a surge in inflation during 2021-22 due to the twin supply shocks of COVID and Russian invasion of Ukraine.This surge was preceded by a long period of low inflation for US,UK and the Eurozone countries like Germany.While inflati
56、on accounted due to the large fiscal stimulus provided in these countries was foreseen,the Russia-Ukraine war added an additional shock and led to this surge specially in Germany with high energy and gas bills being the major contributors of inflation.Even Japan which has had disinflation for many y
57、ears,also saw an uptick in inflation post 2022 after which the Bank of Japan finally raised rates after years of ultra-loose monetary policy.Seeing these price shocks as transitory,Central Banks around the world reacted a little late to inflation but have been on a tightening cycle since 2022.Inflat
58、ion,while falling,is yet to reach to pre-pandemic levels for these countries.For China,this trend has been contradictory with its inflation remaining lower than many of its peers during 2020-2023,with a little rise in 2022,raising concerns of deflation.Unlike other major global economies,consumer sp
59、ending did not rise much when lockdown restrictions were lifted.Weak domestic demand along with weak trade data,and challenges in housing market have been the major reasons for this trend.Youth unemployment along with increasing debt burden of the country are two major problems the country is facing
60、 whilst fighting deflation.While there has been recovery in manufacturing activity,increasing inflation numbers in 2024,it still is not expected to reach pre-pandemic level anytime soon.Indias response to the COVID-19 pandemic,through fiscal stimulus,had only a short-lived effect on inflation,which
61、remained persistently high compared to other economies.Over the past few years,the Indian economy has faced a series of shocks,including the pandemic,supply-chain disruptions,and geopolitical tensions,which have kept inflation elevated.The Reserve Bank of India struggled to keep inflation within its
62、 target range,missing its mandate during several quarters.Despite these difficulties,India has managed to reduce both headline and core inflation through strategic administrative and monetary measures.By tightening monetary policy and increasing interest rates,the RBI has successfully curbed core in

64、ely low 0.8%,due to a mix of economic uncertainty,geopolitical tensions,inflationary pressures,and lingering supply chain disruptions,followed by a period of accelerated expected growth reaching 3.4%in CY25P,before stabilizing at around 3.3%for the subsequent years CY26P to CY29P.This pattern sugges

69、s momentum remained in the range in the Q2FY24 with GDP growth at 8.1%,mainly supported by acceleration in investments.However,private consumption growth was muted due to weak rural demand and some moderation in urban demand amid elevated inflationary pressures in Q2FY24.The GDP growth number improv
70、ed for Q3FY24 at 8.6%.Indias GDP at constant prices surged to Rs.47.24 trillion in Q4FY24 from Rs.43.84 trillion in Q4FY23,marking a 7.8%growth rate.This upswing was fueled by robust performances in construction,mining&quarrying,utility services,and manufacturing sectors and investment drove the GDP
71、 growth,while both private and government consumption remained subdued.Real GDP in the year FY24 is estimated to grow at 8.2%at Rs.173.82 trillion as per provisional estimate of the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation.It is expected that domestic demand,especially investment,to be th
72、e main driver of growth in India,amid sustained levels of business and consumer confidence.In Q1FY25,real GDP grew by 6.7%y-o-y,hitting a 15-month low,as compared to 8.2%y-o-y in the previous quarter.Private consumption,a key driver of the GDP,showed resilience increasing by 7.45%while government sp
73、ending contracted by 0.24%.This growth was largely driven by elections and extreme summer conditions,which impacted economic activities across several sectors.GDP Growth Outlook Driven by fixed investment and improving global environment,domestic economic activity continues to expand.The provisional
74、 estimates(PE)placed real GDP growth at 8.2%for FY24.Industrial activity led by manufacturing continues its momentum on the back of strengthening domestic demand.Moreover,the services sector-maintained buoyancy as could be observed by growth in high frequency indicators such as E-way bills,GST reven
75、ues,toll collections,aggregate,and a healthy growth in domestic air cargo and port cargo.The purchasing managers index for both manufacturing and services continues to exhibit a sustained and healthy expansion.Domestic economic activity remains strong.On the supply side,with advancing monsoon,kharif
76、 sowing has picked up,improving agricultural production prospects.Additionally,growth in GVA for major non-agricultural sectors like manufacturing,construction,and utilities has stayed above 5%for Q1FY25,indicating expansion in the mentioned sectors.On the demand side,household consumption is bolste
77、red by a recovery in rural demand and consistent discretionary spending in urban areas.Fixed investment activity is robust,supported by the governments ongoing focus on capital expenditure,healthy balance sheets of banks and corporates,and other policy measures.Private corporate investment is pickin
78、g up,driven by an increase in bank credit.Merchandise exports grew in June,albeit at a slower rate,while the growth in non-oil-non-gold imports accelerated,indicating resilience of domestic demand.Services exports saw double-digit growth in May 2024 before slowing down in June 2024.Improved agricult
79、ural activity would improve rural consumption,while urban consumption would be supported by buoyancy in services activity.Additionally,improvement in global trade prospects are expected to support external demand.11 Industry Research Report on Indian Gems and Jewellery Sector Persistent geopolitical
80、 tensions and volatility in international financial markets and geo-economic fragmentation do pose risk to this outlook.Based on these considerations,the RBI,in its August 2024 monetary policy,has projected real GDP growth at 7.2%y-o-y for FY25.Table 2:RBIs GDP Growth Outlook(Y-o-Y%)FY25P(complete y

89、nuary 2022.Following this,CPI reached 6.9%in March 2022.CPI remained elevated at an average of 6.7%in FY23,above the RBIs tolerance level.However,there was some respite toward the end of the fiscal wherein the retail inflation stood at 5.7%in March 2023,tracing back to the RBIs tolerance band.Apart
90、from a favorable base effect,the relief in retail inflation came from a moderation in food inflation.In FY24,the CPI moderated for two consecutive months to 4.7%in April 2023 and 4.3%in May 2023.This trend snapped in June 2023 with CPI rising to 4.9%.In July 2023,the CPI had reached its highest poin
91、t at 7.4%,this was largely due to increase in food prices.The notable surge in vegetable prices and in other food categories such as cereals,pulses,spices,and milk have driven this increase.In August 2023,the food inflation witnessed some moderation owing to governments active intervention.This was
92、further moderated for second consecutive month in September 2023 to 5%,led by a sharp correction in vegetables prices and lower LPG prices.Helped by deflation in the fuel and light category,the retail inflation in October 2023 softened at 4.9%.This trend reversed in November 2023 due to spike in cer
93、tain vegetable prices as well as sticky inflation in non-perishable food items such as cereals,pulses and spices and the CPI rose to 5.6%.In the month of December 2023,elevated food prices and an unfavourable base drove headline inflation to a four-month peak of 5.7%.However in the month of January
94、and February,food prices softened and the inflation was reported at 5.1%for both the months.March witnessed furthur softning of prices registering 4.9%growth.For FY24 inflation moderated to 5.4%which are within the boundaries set of 2%to 6%by the RBI.High inflation in specific food items poses infla
95、tion risk,even though an improvement in south-west monsoon and progress in sowing are improving the food inflation outlook.This makes it crucial to monitor monsoon distribution.Additionally,global food prices also show some softening in July,post increases in March 2024.While government initiatives
96、are expected to mitigate upward price pressure,external risks from geopolitical tensions may affect supply chains and commodity prices.The numbers for April 2024-August 2024 show a decline in inflation growth y-o-y to 4.4%as compared to inflation growth y-o-y of 5.6%in April 2023-July 2023 period.Fo
97、r August 2024,CPI inflation stood at 3.7%which has been the second lowest retail inflation in the last 5 years.There was a decline in inflation observed among the subgroups spices,meat and fish,and pulses and products.Additionally,food inflation was also at the second lowest in this month since June
98、 2023.13 Industry Research Report on Indian Gems and Jewellery Sector Chart 4:Retail Price Inflation in terms of index and Y-o-Y Growth in%(Base:2011-12=100)Source:MOSPI The CPI is primarily factored in by RBI while preparing their bi-monthly monetory policy.At the bi-monthly meeting held in August
99、2024,RBI projected inflation at 4.5%for FY25 with inflation during Q2FY25 at 4.4%,Q3FY25 at 4.7%,Q4FY25 at 4.3%,and Q1FY26 at 4.4%.Considering the current inflation situation,RBI has kept the repo rate unchanged at 6.5%again in the August 2024 meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee.Further,the cen
100、tral bank continued to remain focused on the withdrawal of its accommodative stance.While headline inflation has started easing due to softening in core component and economic activity has been resilient supported by domestic and investment demand,volatility in food prices due to adverse weather con

122、ears.After a decline in merchandise exports in FY20 and FY21 due to the pandemic,merchandise exports picked up again in FY22 reaching USD 422 billion indicating a y-o-y growth of 44.6%.This surge can be attributed to pent-up demand from the major waves of the COVID-19 pandemic and the expansionary m
123、onetary policies implemented by developed nations in response to the pandemics effects.This merchandise export growth was primarily fueled by increased demand for products such as petroleum,cotton yarn,textiles,chemicals,and engineering goods.In FY23,exports grew only by 6.9%y-o-y reaching USD 451.0
124、7 billion.In FY24,the merchandise exports fell to USD 437.11 billion registering a decline of 3.1%y-o-y.This can be attributed to various global events such as the Houthi attacks on ships in the Red Sea causing increased freight costs and disrupted supply chains,consistently high crude oil prices du

128、ttributed to a combination of factors impacting consumer spending.The pandemic,high global and domestic inflation,and tighter financial conditions have constrained private consumption.Poor agricultural output has particularly hurt rural demand,while the shift in household budgets towards higher heal
129、th expenditures,at the expense of education,has further strained consumer finances.Increased health spending has added financial burdens,limiting spending on other essential items like food,clothing,and housing,which has been evident in the decreasing PFCE growth in these categories.Additionally,wea
130、k urban demand,driven by ongoing employment challenges,has exacerbated the situation.Although the anticipated revival of monsoon conditions may boost rural demand in the current fiscal year,the overall decline in PFCE highlights persistent issues in both rural and urban consumption patterns.As of FY

133、ndia Indias rural economy is becoming a significant driver of the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods(FMCG)sectors resurgence,signalling a promising turnaround in aggregate demand after a slow start to the 2024-25 financial year.The Reserve Bank of India(RBI)highlights that rising incomes and improved infras
134、tructure are fueling increased rural consumption of FMCG products.This boost is supported by a rise in rural savings,marked by growing numbers of savings bank accounts and balances,and a reduction in inflationary pressures,which has allowed rural consumption to catch up with urban areas.Additionally
135、,favourable monsoon conditions and improved sowing data are expected to sustain this growth,complemented by increased government spending on rural development and infrastructure.The expansion of middle-income households in rural India is transforming the countrys economic landscape.This growth is dr
136、iven by rising incomes,increased discretionary spending,a shift towards online and omnichannel shopping,and advancements in payment and logistics infrastructure.There is also a notable dietary shift in rural areas from carb-based foods to more protein-rich diets.Indias middle class,characterized by
137、significant income variability,exhibits diverse spending patterns.Lower-middle-class households allocate much of their income to private healthcare,education,and essential consumer goods,such as motorbikes and basic appliances.In contrast,the upper-middle class invests in luxury items,entertainment,
138、property,and personal services,with a higher propensity to own assets like cars,computers,and air conditioners.Both segments of the middle class are substantial and emerging as key drivers of consumption and economic growth in India.Recent policies,including the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employm
139、ent Guarantee Act,have increased rural incomes,enabling more rural households to enter the middle class.The growing,more inclusive,and politically engaged middle class reflects broader economic growth,although there is a risk of social strain if growth falters and quality job creation does not keep
140、pace.Improvements in agriculture and rural spending are emerging as bright spots in demand conditions.The governments Budget measures,which focus on agriculture,infrastructure,and rural development,aim to increase incomes and revitalize the rural sector.These measures include transforming agricultur
141、al research,introducing new crop varieties,promoting natural farming,and enhancing digital infrastructure for agriculture.Successful implementation of these programs,coupled with proper fund allocation,is crucial for improving farm incomes and strengthening supply chains.A shift towards diversified,
142、high-value agricultural production,along with marketing and trade reforms,is needed to foster more inclusive,environmentally friendly,and climate-resilient agriculture.Despite higher absolute incomes among the wealthy,the sheer size of Indias middle class indicates it will become a major force in th
143、e economy,creating one of the worlds largest markets.This burgeoning middle class,with its growing discretionary spending power,is poised to drive investment,generate employment,and spur further economic growth.Assuming effective reforms are implemented,and the middle class expands to over one billi

148、tion,largely due to an increase in self-employment.19 Industry Research Report on Indian Gems and Jewellery Sector Between 2017-18 and 2019-20,the growth in womens participation was marked by an increase in helpers in household enterprises,but from 2019-20 to 2022-23,the rise was mainly due to more
149、women becoming own-account workers.This shift is partly attributed to the return of male migrants during the pandemic,which led women to take up their own-farm or other non-farm activities to support household income.This trend of increasing self-employment among women spans various sectors,includin
150、g agriculture,manufacturing,and services,reflecting a broader shift in the labour market dynamics for women.For 2022-23,the female LFPR was 37%,underscoring the increasing participation of women in the workforce.The increase in female LFPR from 37%in 2022-23 to 41.7%in 2023-24 can also be attributed

267、festivals,and other ceremonies.Geographically,the manufacturing base is concentrated in key states like Maharashtra,Gujarat,and Tamil Nadu.Organized players are gaining traction as the industry undergoes formalization.Increasing consumer preference for branded jewellery,quality assurance,and contemp
268、orary designs is driving this transition.Government initiatives,such as mandatory hallmarking for gold jewellery,the Gold Monetization Scheme,and easing gold import restrictions,are bolstering the formal sector.In 2024,seven major trade fairs were organized by prominent councils such as the Gem and
269、Jewellery Export Promotion Council(GJEPC),the All India Gem and Jewellery Domestic Council and others.These events were held across cities,including Jaipur,Mumbai,Bengaluru,Coimbatore,Delhi NCR,Hyderabad,and Kolkata,showcasing the dynamic Gems and Jewellery sector in India.Serving as vital platforms
270、,these fairs promoted innovation,enhanced domestic and international trade,and fostered collaborations among industry stakeholders.Domestic demand is fueled by rising disposable incomes,urbanization,and a growing preference for lightweight,modern designs,especially among younger consumers.On the exp
271、ort front,markets like the U.S.,UAE,and Hong Kong continue to drive growth.Trade agreements and government support for export-oriented policies further strengthen Indias position in the global market.While the sector holds immense potential,it faces challenges such as gold price volatility,dependenc
