- Increase in cashless transactions but - Steady increase in share of large currency notes in currency in circulation Mumbai: Even though more and more people are turning to digital payments in the country for buying and selling transactions, there is also an increase in Currency in Circulation (CIC).

Digital payments are replacing cash transactions but the sentiment to hold cash still hasn't gone from the people of the country. CIC is witnessing growth due to increase in demand for high value notes. Circulation of high value notes increased significantly during Corona period. According to the Reserve Bank report, there was an increase of 19.40 percent in circulation of high value notes in 2020-21 and this increase was 11.30 percent in 2021-22.

The impact of uneven growth will be seen on economic development

Image
- The biggest problem with the concentration of wealth and income is that it will be difficult to maintain high economic growth if demand remains weak Instead, the concentration of wealth and increasing inequality can affect economic growth. This can continue even when the country shows strong economic growth. Statistics show that inequality has increased in the post-pandemic recovery process. Given the weak improvement in demand at lower income levels, declining wages and the overall employment situation, the economic recovery appears uneven. Data from the National Statistical Office, the Reserve Bank of India and other sources show that rural India is still facing tough times while a section of corporate and urban India is faring better. Data from the Statistics Office shows that between January 2022 and October 2023, rural retail inflation was higher than urban in 18 out of 22 months. Persistently high inflation, mostly due to food prices, monsoon and low production could weigh h

Central banks increase their investment in US bonds

But gold softened and fell between $1991/1995 an ounce, supported by a four-day ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. In this, central banks are sidelining gold in favor of increasing reserves while considering its stability and liquidity as more important, ignoring its returns. Central banks are increasing investment in US government bonds. Analysts say surveying why the bullish rally in the precious metal took place at this stage, rather than talking about US debt. How the 2021/2025 world battle days play out and many countries in no mood to destabilize the dollar support the bullish gold. Gold retreats to $2,000 an ounce for the first time since July. It has to be noted that despite the UK ban, Russian gold is sold in the international market and the gold goes

A drastic exercise by the Reserve Bank before the problem of NPAs in banks rears its head again

Image
- Increase in unsecured loans due to credit competition among financial institutions As a precautionary measure, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has increased the risk weight in consumer credit from 100 percent to 125 percent for both banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs). However, this standard has not been applied to housing, education, vehicle and gold loans. In an October policy statement, RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das also expressed concern over rising unsecured loans and directed banks and NBFCs to tighten their internal controls. In case of any stress on unsecured loans, banks ultimately bear the brunt, as there is no collateral against these loans, making it difficult for banks to recover money from borrowers. After a long period, the performance of the country's banking sector is currently looking encouraging. Banks' profits have increased after a long time and the proportion of NPAs or bad loans on the books has come down. Increase in net profit is seen

AI requires a regulatory model like SEBI India will develop standards to regulate artificial intelligence and act like AI regulator SEBI, said Sanjeev Sanyal, a member of the Prime Minister's Economic Advisory Council. Stating that the model of self-regulation and bureaucratic regulation is unlikely to work in the artificial intelligence space, he suggested that India could consider having a regulator, which understands the technology and looks at how it is evolving. An artificial intelligence system requires a system like SEBI. You need a regulator who understands the technology and pays attention to how it is evolving, rather than wasting time predicting where it will go. As a company has a board, which is responsible. Just as business models and accounts need to be understood, there is also a need to explain what artificial intelligence is doing. 2 billion square feet of additional healthcare real estate needed India needs 2 billion square feet of healthcare space to cater t

Continued efforts by the government to reduce import dependence on China

Image
- Need to think beyond import controls and fiscal incentives at the policy level Government intervention does not always produce the desired results. For example, the central government announced in August that it would place seven products in the IT hardware sector on the restricted list. The scheme was postponed till October 30 and the government clarified its position but the market felt the potential uncertainty. At least in the short term, he understood this and increased imports. As a result, imports of computers, laptops and related products rose 42 percent to $715 million in September. The central government is constantly trying to reduce import dependence on China. This is being done partly for wider geopolitical reasons. This policy was also viewed in the same context. Another reason for banning imports is to boost domestic production and IT hardware is part of the government's Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme. The government recently modified the PLI scheme fo
