India in cyclical slowdown, RBI's 7.2% estimate 'overly optimistic': Nomura

Japanese brokerage Nomura on Monday said the Indian economy has entered a phase of "cyclical growth slowdown" and the Reserve Bank's estimate of 7.2 per cent GDP expansion is "overly optimistic". The brokerage said it sees "rising downside risks" to its GDP growth estimates of 6.7 per cent in the ongoing FY25 and 6.8 per cent in FY26. "We believe India's economy has entered a cyclical growth slowdown. Coincident and leading growth indicators point to a further moderation in GDP growth and the RBI's forecast of 7.2 per cent for FY25 is overly optimistic," the brokerage said in a note. The RBI maintained its FY25 growth estimate at 7.2 per cent earlier this month, even as some watchers have been coming out with lower numbers. Nomura said urban consumption indicators have been softening lately, and pointed to the slump in passenger vehicle sales, moderation in airline passenger traffic and FMCG companies flagging weak urban demand.

Karnataka has registered a robust GSDP growth of 10.2 per cent in 2023-24, the state government said on Monday. Citing a data from the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI), the government said in a statement that the state has significantly surpassed the national average of 8.2 per cent. "Initially, the National Statistical Estimate (NSE) had projected a modest 4 per cent GSDP growth for Karnataka, but this was revised to 13.1 per cent by the end of the fiscal year, indicating early underestimation of the state's economic performance," the statement read. The government pointed out that this feat was achieved despite severe challenges, including the worst drought in a decade and a slowdown in global IT markets. The state's agriculture sector faced negative growth due to drought conditions, while Karnataka's dependence on the IT and hardware sectorsaccounting for 28 per cent of its Gross State Value Added (GSVA)made it vulnerable to global economic downturns,
