Effects of note ban in India will disperse in medium term: World Bank

13 Jan 2017 Evaluate

The World Bank has said that negative effects of demonetisation of high value currency notes on Indian economy will basically disperse in the medium term as any reform has short-term costs but finally it will bring long-term gains.

The World Bank, Development Prospects Group Director, Ayhan Kose has said that the country has already undertaken a wide range of reforms and expecting that these will help in relaxing domestic supply bottlenecks along with increased productivity. He also said that in the coming years, moderate inflation and civil service pay raise should continue to support real incomes and consumption. 

Ayhan Kose stated that government has made a decision and implemented this decision quickly with the objective that this could help reduce informal the size of the informal economy. He also said that whenever these types of policy changes are implemented, they have effects during the transition. Kose added that the part of the reason the government implemented the scheme was to curb corruption, tax evasion, and counterfeiting. If that were expected, that by broadening the tax base, revenues will eventually go up, besides reducing the size of the informal economy. 

Meanwhile, the World Bank, in its first projection on India post-demonetisation, has lowered its growth forecast for India to 7% from 7.6% in 2016-17, citing a slowdown in consumption and manufacturing due to demonetisation and an ongoing decline in private investment and credit constraints due to impaired bank balance sheets. However, the World Bank is expecting growth picking up momentum in FY18-FY19, supported by private consumption, infrastructure spending and a rebound in investment growth. It also expects private investment to accelerate as firms and banks undertake the necessary measures and the effects of important structural reforms start being felt.
