India’s CAD likely to be $35 billion in FY14: Finance Minister

01 Apr 2014 Evaluate

Finance Minister P Chidambaram announced that country’s current account deficit (CAD) is likely to be $35 billion in FY14 much lower than about $88 billion recorded in the previous fiscal year.

During the April-December’FY14, CAD stands at $31.1 billion (2.3% of GDP) versus $69.8 billion (5.2% of GDP) reported in the same period of previous fiscal year mainly driven by a sharp decline in the trade deficit as merchandise exports picked up and imports moderated, particularly gold imports. Trade deficit during the period April-February’FY14, declined to $128.09 billion as against $179.93 billion in the same period of previous fiscal year. The significant curtailing of country’s CAD has eased some pressure on the macro-economic front as it is a major macro-economic problem which has created huge volatility in the domestic equity markets and currency.

Finance Minister also added that Indian economy is now more stable position than 20 months ago. The  fundamental of economy are strong and there would not be a case of downgrade by global rating agencies. The government projected India’s GDP growth at 4.9 percent for the current fiscal.
