Pandemic eats up Rs 13 lakh crore of household income: Report

Mumbai, Mar 5 () Households have lost a whopping Rs 13 lakh crore of their incomes from the pandemic-induced job losses, according to a report that also warns of the economy losing momentum by mid-2021 on a likely slowdown in consumption demand that has propped the economy in recent months.

In the second quarter of the current financial year, GDP contraction narrowed to 7.5 per cent; while in Q3, it grew 40 basis points (bps) as compared with a 23.9 per cent contraction in the first quarter.

India ‘out of recession’, GDP grows 0.4%

India’s economy resurfaced to growth territory in the third quarter of fiscal year (FY) 2020-21, clocking a 0.4% rise in the gross domestic product (GDP), as per data from the National Statistical Office (NSO). GDP had shrunk in the first two quarters by 24.4% and 7.3% as per revised data, amid the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns, marking a technical recession. The NSO has also revised its advance national income estimates for FY21 to project an 8% decline in GDP, compared with the 4% growth seen in FY20. The NSO had earlier estimated a 7.7% shrinkage for FY21. The Finance Ministry termed the 0.4% real GDP growth in Q3 as a return to ‘the pre-pandemic times of positive growth rates’ and a reflection of a ‘further strengthening of V-shaped recovery that began in Q2’. India’s farm sector remained resilient, clocking a 3.9% growth in Gross Value Added (GVA) to the economy in the October-to-December quarter, after recording a 3.3% and 3% rise in the first two quarters, respectively. ... » Learn More about India ‘out of recession’, GDP grows 0.4%

Govt to focus on top-quality development

China will give priority to high-quality development this year, setting its GDP growth target at above 6 percent, Premier Li Keqiang said on Friday, as the world's second-largest economy looks to cement its economic recovery from a year disrupted by COVID-19. In the Government Work Report delivered at the opening of the fourth session of the 13th National People's Congress, Li underscored that the economic fundamentals that will sustain China's long-term growth remain unchanged despite potential risks and challenges this year. "In setting this target, we have taken into account the recovery of economic activity. A target of over 6 percent will be well aligned with the annual goals of subsequent years in the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-25), and will help sustain healthy economic growth," he explained.

The need for ESG: Pluralising development through Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance investing

When we think of 'investments', the first thought that comes to mind is redirecting surplus capital into productive activities that amplify fortunes. However, despite growing prosperity, the self-serving nature of capitalism in its present form has only been disadvantageous for societies worldwide marked by a widening gap between the affluent and impoverished. The current scenario shrouded in socio-ecological consequences of unfretted profit-making ventures, which are increasingly threatening asset interests, calls for an adjustment in the conventional investment mindset. Evaluating companies based on their compliance, collective equity, and environmental performance rather than profitability is fast gaining acceptance among the global investment community. This shift in investor interest depicted best through a record high of $1.2 trillion Assets Under Management (AUM) in ESG focused portfolios will require corporates to start being mindful about compliance.

Lifting taxes to shore up finances

The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government last month rolled out a further HK$120 billion (US$15.4 billion) relief stimulus package to prop up the pandemic-ravaged economy and lift economic growth by 2 percent. As a result, the budget deficit for the 2021-22 financial year is expected to reach HK$101.6 billion, accounting for 3.6 percent of the city's GDP, due to the countercyclical measures and the continued rise in recurrent expenditure. The government also offered a list of "sweeteners", including HK$5,000 worth of electronic consumption vouchers for each eligible Hong Kong permanent resident and new arrivals aged 18 or above; cuts in salaries tax, capped at HK$10,000; a 100 percent reduction in profits tax, capped at HK$10,000, that will benefit nearly 130,000 enterprises; an extra half-a-month pay in welfare allowances; as well as low interest rate loans of up to HK$80,000 for the jobless.
