Resilience Amidst Global Headwinds

Despite ongoing global geopolitical uncertainties and disruptions in trade and supply chains, the Indian economy has demonstrated remarkable resilience. India has effectively navigated these challenges, maintaining a steady growth trajectory.

The percentage of economic indicators displaying acceleration has risen to 74% in Q3 FY25, compared to 71% in Q2 FY25. A robust rural economy is playing a crucial role in reinforcing stability and sustaining growth across various sectors. Consistent rural agriculture wage growth, coupled with increased domestic tractor sales and a positive trend in rabi crop sowing, further contribute to this positive momentum. These factors collectively highlight the strengthening foundations of the Indian economy.(SBI EcoWrap Feb25)

Capital expenditure (CAPEX) is exhibiting improvement in Q3 FY25. While the majority of states' CAPEX as a percentage of Budgeted Expenditure (BE) was lower earlier in FY25, there's a noticeable upward momentum in Q3 FY25, which is a positive sign for future development. Furthermore, the Index of Industrial Production (IIP) manufacturing growth has increased from 3.3% in Q2 FY25 to 4.3% in Q3 FY25.

Consistent rural agriculture wage growth, coupled with increased domestic tractor sales and improved Rabi crop sowing, underscores the health and stability of the rural economy. Although the majority of states' Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) as a percentage of Budgeted Expenditure (BE) is lower in FY25, there is a notable upward momentum observed in Q3 FY25. This positive shift in CAPEX trends signals potential for further economic development and growth in the coming periods. 

In Q3FY25, around 4000 listed corporates reported a revenue growth of 6.2%, with EBIDTA and profit after tax (PAT) increasing by approximately 11% and 12% respectively compared to Q3FY24.​
Excluding the BFSI sector, over 3400 listed entities saw revenue and PAT growth of 5% and 9% respectively in the same period.​
Notably, these corporates experienced a 5% EBIDTA growth in Q3FY25, reversing the negative EBIDTA growth seen in the previous two quarters.​
At an aggregate level, the EBIDTA margin improved by 44 basis points to 14.84% from 14.4% in Q2FY25.​
Additionally, Corporate GVA grew by around 300 basis points year-on-year to 9.55% in Q3FY25.

India's Semiconductor play-now only semi-final!

India's Semiconductor Manufacturing in 2026–2030: PLI Impact, Global Standing, and AI-Era Policy Needs How India's PLI scheme is building semiconductor capacity, what it means for global supply chains, and what government must do next as AI demand reshapes the industry. 14 min read Modern semiconductor fab with Indian innovation flags and growth trajectory Semiconductors-Policy in India India's PLI scheme commits $10 billion to build semiconductor manufacturing capacity over 5 years, with TATA and Micron fab projects expected to deliver 1–2 million wafers monthly by 2027. By 2030, India could claim 2–3% of global semiconductor production - a major jump from today's <1%, though still far behind Taiwan and South Korea. Geopolitically, this matters: as supply chains de-risk away from Taiwan and China, India becomes a critical third hub for mature-node and memory-chip manufacturing. However, success hinges on three critical gaps the government must address. First...

Why Indian Rupee is falling steeply against US dollar?

  The Indian Rupee recently crossed the 97 mark against the US Dollar, and it doesn't seem to be slowing down. If you've been tracking exchange rates or planning a trip abroad, you've probably felt the pinch. Everything from imported electronics to cooking oil is getting more expensive. And your money just doesn't stretch as far as it used to. This isn't a one-day blip. The rupee has been on a steady downward slide for months, and the reasons go deeper than most headlines suggest. It's a mix of what's happening inside India's economy and what's happening across the globe. Trade deficits, foreign investors pulling out money, rising oil prices, the US Federal Reserve keeping interest rates high — all of these are pulling the rupee in the wrong direction at the same time. In this post, we'll break down the key domestic pressures weighing on the rupee and the global forces making the US Dollar stronger. We'll also look at what the Reserve Bank ...
