India’s CAD to come down to 2.5% of GDP in next 2-3 years: Ahluwalia

02 May 2013 Evaluate

Expressing confidence that India’s current account deficit (CAD) will reach at comfortable level, Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said, the CAD will come down to 2.5 percent of GDP in the next two to three years from around 5 percent currently. 

While, addressing a meeting of the Asia Pacific Regional Committee, Ahluwalia said that although the global economic slowdown was the primary reason for declining export, a lot of domestic problems and supply side constraints are other reasons affecting growth. These supply-side rigidities are the result of several years of rapid growth which puts a lot of pressure on the system, he added.   

By adding further he said, the government is focusing on the foreign investments, but it is also necessary to manage the high current account deficit. He emphasized the need for coordinated action among various ministries to spur the economy’s growth. Meanwhile, the current account deficit (CAD) reached an all-time high of 6.7 percent of GDP in the third quarter of FY13.
