New Finance minister's challange

Finnaly we get the Pranavda as our finance minister. He gives interview to media after two days gap of taking control the office. He said that the expectation of indian inc. is very high and some of the sector didn;t do well in slow down. So he point the manufacturing sector as the dragger of the slow down.
But personnaly I believe that the agriculture is the key for our economy, yes we are quietly changed in last 3-6 years. Still we facing some old problem in agriculture, which gives us the high inflation number. Due to inflation and other comodities import and subsidies we are facing resistance in good growth and competition with China. Realty, Metal, Cement sector gives some sign of revival, but the manufacring and consumer goods are still behind. Next month's IIP data is important for decide the GDP of 2009-2010.

History in Stock market

Last week is the historical for stock market of India. As we all know that on monday the Sensex and Nifty both indicws hit the upper circuit twice which is never happen. The strong UPA lead result boost the confidence of investors. They buy agressively in hope of strong action on economic reforms from UPA Government.
 Both Sensex and Nifty close 14-15% above from last week. This is happen after 17 years. Total weekly gain of sensex create the market capitalisation  double in a day. Now some of the analyst predicting that the indian economy is keep going as last year, but be carefull economy isn't depend on stock market. Really the stock market is depend on economy and the good number boost the stock prises and so the indicies. But naturally after strong government we can expect some bold steps for indian industries which can give the extra dose of confidence. Let's see the Manmohan Singh's 100 day agenda for the real economy........

Election and Economy

Some of the normal questions and answers we get from media after every election that some of party can change our economic prespect and some party can change our economic pictures in this way or something else..But I want to say that the in India Election and the budget behind this is the important part of our economy, Here I mean to say both Black and White money can effect the real economy.
As our election commision hawkeye the budget for every person who apply for candidate. Every candidate must submit there total acconut statement for election publicity and other personel wealt's report to commission. Here some of the candidate and party can't get the all taxable money to report. So Black money can play important role here which come in picture at every election. The real market's bounceback shows us the scenario htat we get atleast 15000 crore ruppes from election. which effect the our economy and boost the demand in real market.

IIP data- Growth story of india

Just look the chart of impotant data in my blog archive and see the past performance of indian economy. Among them IIP(Indian industrial production) data is the most important indicator to analyze the future demand supply channel. Data will be announced by central goverment on 12th day of every month.
This data is come from steel, cement, auto and some consumer product's production on monthly basis. The IIP reflects the current demand of market. So we can say that if IIP move up the chances of GDP to go up. But not at all time, some time it's gone revrse as in this global slowdown.
