One of the major reasons for INR depreciation is India’s massive exposure and dependence on one single commodity:
OIL.
Almost 70% of our imports in value is just crude oil, as we’re the third-largest consumer globally.
There are two ways this affect our economy and currency.

There are two ways this affect our economy and currency.
1. Global crude oil market is denominated in USD.
This means we have to sell INR to buy USD in the Forex market first, and then pay the same to OPEC to import oil.
As demand for USD rises, and supply being controlled by The Fed, its value too rises against the INR.

Talking about the “impending recession” seems to be the trend. So, it was a surprise last week, when both the #Sensex & the #Nifty went ↑ by almost 3%. Potential reasons? Maybe the cooldown in the prices of #commodities. This helps sectors like #Auto, #Realty, & #FMCG. 2/7
So naturally, both the #NiftyFMCG & #NiftyRealty were ↑ over 5%. #NiftyAuto was also ↑ 3.5%. In fact, every sectoral index was painting the town green. Global indices were also mostly up. The S&P 500 was ↑ 1.94% & the #NASDAQ100 ↑ by 4.6%. 3/7

Who said #hesitancy was not a prob? My comorbid wife delayed taking shot by a month. Sr citizen neighbour pastered doctor son against vaccine. #Covaxin was not mocked? It was done till early April. Hesitancy was so common that bengal went slow on covax indent 1/n
Why all health staff, Sr xitizen didn't queue up 4 #vaccine in Feb-March? Centres wr idle. Data proves, Thr ws not equal push from all states either. All rushed 4 vax as #SecondWave struck. As in end April 50% on queue for vax wr above 60. This contributed to overcrowding. 2/n

#IndianEconomy In a Group Discussion of my Alumni, most of who are industry seniors or leaders, what is emerging that India is on its recovery path. Salaries that were reduced by as much as 50%, is on the uptake and is going back to pre-covid levels.
Another person mentioned that large MNCs are signing contracts and closing them. In another case, no salary reduction.
To quote another, "Hurried layoffs and furloughs are making it harder to come back online. People are realizing the value of human capital and bench strength".
Right now DR @APanagariya speaking at @BenCham1833 Leadership Series on the impact of the pandemic #ArvindPanagariya #BengalChamber
2/n Dr #ArvindPanagariya endorses the government's decision not to front-end the "demand stimulus" - because with labour not being there and enterprises shut - Supply Curve being vertical - it wouldn't have worked. #COVID19India #BengalChamber
3/n Dr #ArvindPanagariya thinks it was the right decision to focus first on food security and controlling infection spread. Next, the interventions by RBI on liquidity and credit lines was the logical second step #COVID19India #BengalChamber
In an atmosphere of doom and gloom, refreshing to hear industry leaders and bankers at the launch of Akhil Gupta's "Some Sizes Fit All" sound more optimistic than our economists and commentariat @bhanshireen @rajivmemani @Kalpnamorparia @kakunakhate #books #economy #IndianEconomy
Talking of a SWOT #KakuNakhate of @BankofAmerica thinks India is far better geo-politically today - though she sounded a word of caution on the situation at the borders. #KalpanaMorparia of @jpmorgan appeared to be bullish on banking reforms and RBI interventions. @CNBCTV18Live
The best came from @rajivmemani of @EY_India, who highlighted the "talent pool" from India providing critical services around the globe at this time of the pandemic. That combined with the technology progress can be a differentiator in the postcovid world. #SomeSizesFitAll #books
In an otherwise grim #economic outlook, #Cement stocks shine as a ray of hope in the market - basis better than expected performance of cement companies in Q1 21 and banking on government infra spends to boost #economy post #Covid19 #indianeconomy business-standard.com/article/market…
#IndianEconomy Return of #migrantlabour could turn out to be a boon for #ruralIndia. Better availability of labour, good harvest, MNREGA and PMGKY etc spends could augur well for #ruraleconomy. Besides, availability of manpower also helped in sowing season. #COVID19India #economy
#IndianEconomy Per current outlook on #Covid19 Cities and user states can’t wait indefinitely for normalcy and #migrantlabour to return (even at higher pay). They will have to adopt new construction practices and technology. That is also an opportunity for re/upskilling. #economy

The peculiar thing about Crude oil price collapse & bloodbath in equity markets across the world is that, no one saw it coming, no one had expectation/expected OPEC+ & Russia fallout would result in so big mrkt crash - Why would b that ? 1/n #marketcrash #COVD19 #IndianEconomy
Such highly volatile markts r real challenges to traders & risk manager even though risk scenarios r built & MTM @ VAR r calculated, despite of that margin calls going to banks/dealers - This has resulted into domino effect 2/n

Guy at BSNL office was worried over his personal issues, started talking to me on his own, about lay offs, privatization, future of LIC, a lot. Said govt unable to control but later said, 'look at Pakistan, they've to mortgage all, even roads, we're much better' #Media #Narrative
He was explaining to me that in India, we're yet to sell railways but in Pakistan even 'roads sold' to keep the country's economy afloat'. Must have picked up from channels. So this comparison always makes people content, 'unse behtar hain', without stepping foot out of India.
This is the super narrative--comparison has to be with Pakistan, look at how others have sunk & we are still not doing badly. Even within locality it happens, people are sometimes more jealous about neighbour's accomplishment. So playing on these emotions. Truly amazing.
Long thread on Budget FY-2020: How difficult is finance minister’s job in #India. If you’re amongst those who think the budget doesn’t do much for people, you need to understand this in detail. Why do we struggle to solve national problems? #Budget2020 #NirmalaSitharaman
Let me simplify things for the readers as to how the budget looks like & what the numbers mean. Below is the graphic that I have created for the revenue & expense heads for govt of India.Left side is govt INCOME & right side is how it SPENDS for the year. Size Rs 27.8 lac crores
Income of govt:
1) Taxes & non-tax revenue is 61% & 10% respectively. Additionally, another 4% comes by selling govt shares in PSUs. All this adds to 75%.
2) Borrowings forms the balance 25% of Income. This is our govt borrowing money to spend which of-course carries interest.
