Government taking several steps to boost investor confidence: Montek

06 Nov 2012 Evaluate

In view of lagging growth rate and faltering economy, Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia has said that the government is taking several steps to boost investor confidence and more such measures may follow.  Planning Commission Deputy Chairman asserted that the second half of the year would see better growth rate than the first half, because the signs of continuing deceleration have stopped. He further added that the government is doing a number of things to boost investor confidence, the effect of which will take a few months.

“Lot of examples can be given on the steps the government has taken to get rid of impediments in movements of large projects. I think I am hoping that we will have more such steps. Lots of internal administrative decisions have been pushed forward”, Ahluwalia said. In the past few weeks, the Government has taken a slew of reform measures, including opening up the retail, insurance, pension, information and broadcasting sector to foreign investment.

Not impressed by a series of economic reforms, global agency Standard & Poor (S&P), in October, threatened to downgrade India's sovereign credit rating to junk grade within 24 months in absence of steps to check fiscal deficit and improve investment climate. The rating agency in April had changed the rating outlook of India from stable to negative, reflecting the possibility of a downgrade. The country's present rating is BBB-(Negative), the lowest investment grade rating, and a downgrade would result in India's rating slipping to junk status, raising the cost of overseas borrowings by domestic corporate.

Recently, the Reserve Bank of India too revised downward the GDP growth estimate for the current fiscal to 5.8 per cent from the earlier 6.5 per cent, while increasing its March-end headline inflation forecast to 7.5 per cent.
