New Delhi [India], May 2 : International Monetary Fund (IMF) pinned its hopes on India for global economic revival as it continues to remain a relative "bright spot" in the world economy, Asia Lite reported.A few days back, IMF released its much-awaited World Economic Outlook report 'A Rocky Recovery' which had predicted that India would grow 5.9 per cent this year."We realised that 2020-2021 has been actually a lot better than we thought," IMF economist Del Leigh said at a press briefing, responding to a question from the media query.Global output growth is projected by the IMF to slow to 2.8 per cent in 2023 (calendar year), picking up to 3 per cent in 2024.India continues to remain a relative "bright spot" in the world economy, and will alone contribute 15 per cent of the global growth in 2023, International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said a couple of months back.While digitisation pulled out the world's fifth-largest economy from pandemic lows, prudent fiscal policy and significant financing for capital investments provided in the next year's Budget will help sustain the growth momentum, Asian Lite reported."India's performance has been quite impressive. For this year, we expect India to retain a high growth rate, 6.8 per cent for the year that ends in March. For FY 2023/24 (April 2023 to March 2024) we project 6.1 per cent, a bit of slow down like the rest of the world economy, but way above the global average. And in that way, India is providing about 15 per cent of global growth in 2023," Georgieva said recently.To compare the quantitative impact of different forces, the study relied on a macroeconomic model (PP) based on Platzer and Peruffo (2022)PP is a "real" macroeconomic model, in the sense that it abstracts from nominal and financial frictions that typically underlie cyclical fluctuations. Similarly, for tractability, uncertainty is assumed away, Asian Lite reported.While these are reasonable assumptions for the study of medium- to long-term trends in the real interest rate, the model is ill-equipped to analyze the impact of the financial drivers discussed earlier.Nonetheless, PP still allows for foreign developments to affect domestic interest rates through their implication for net international capital flows. PP is calibrated to represent eight major global economies: the United States, Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, China, India, and Brazil.These are the five largest advanced economies and the three largest emerging market and developing economies, which cover some 70 per cent of global GDP.Demographic developments, the age-earning profile, the share of income going to the richest 10 per cent, productivity trends, the retirement age, average pension replacement rates, labour share, government debt, and public expenditure inform the country-specific calibrations, Asian Lite reported.India's real GDP growth rates are calculated as per national accounts: for 1998-2011 with the base year 2004-05 and, thereafter, with the base year 2011-12.The WEF paper 'A Rocky Recovery' clarified that the projections are based on available information on the authorities' fiscal plans, with adjustments for the IMF staff's assumptions. Subnational data are incorporated with a lag of up to one year; general government data are thus finalised well after central government data.IMF and Indian presentations differ, particularly regarding disinvestment and license-auction proceeds, net versus gross recording of revenues in certain minor categories, and some public sector lending, Asian Lite reported.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
