CareEdge Research Report

Highlights:

  • The gross domestic product figures, with third-quarter GDP growth at 8.4% and the second advanced estimate projecting a full-year growth of 7.6%, have come as a positive surprise.

  • In terms of quarterly growth, the GDP growth of 8.4% in Q3 FY24 marks the highest in six quarters. The gross value added growth was reported at 6.5%.

  • The very wide gap in GDP and GVA growth numbers can be mainly attributed to the strong growth in net taxes. Net taxes have grown by 32% in Q3 FY24 in real terms.

  • Although industrial growth experienced a sequential slowdown, it maintained a double-digit growth momentum, expanding by 10.4% YoY in Q3 FY24.

  • The services sector demonstrated improvement sequentially and the agriculture growth contracted. 

  • While the growth of third quarter remained strong, there were upward revision in the growth of the Q1 and Q2 by 40 bps and 50 bps respectively.

  • Despite sequential improvement, overall consumption growth continues to remain feeble below pre-pandemic average of ~7%.

  • Going forward, the most critical aspect to watch out for will be a broad-based improvement in consumption growth and private investments. 

  • The upward revisions in data for the full-year FY24 pose a potential downside risk to our existing FY25 forecast of 6.7%.
