Market and economic update
Indian equity markets saw a broad based rally in May with the BSE Sensex and BSE Midcap indices up 1.8% and 1.4% respectively (both total return in Indian Rupees) on the back of the BJP government increasing its seat share and winning an absolute majority for a second successive term. Exceeding expectations, this is the first time a party has returned to power with a majority since 1971. Over the month foreign institutional investors and domestic institutions were net buyers to the tune of (US$ 1.4bn) and (US$754m). The Indian Rupee depreciated by 0.2% against US Dollar and appreciated 2.6% against Pound Sterling.
India's real GDP growth moderated to 5.8% in 4QFY19 compared to 6.6% in 3QFY19 due to a contraction in agricultural activity and a slowdown in manufacturing and construction, whilst growth in services improved. On the demand side, even though private consumption slowed to 7.2%, government consumption expenditure, increased 13.1%. Investment growth (gross fixed capital formation) fell sharply to 3.6%. For the year FY19 GDP growth slowed to 6.8% from 7.2% in FY18. Nirmala Sitharaman, the newly appointed Finance Minister will present her first Union Budget for FY19/20 on 5(th) July.
India's benchmark 10 year bond yield slid to an 18-month low to 7.03% as falling oil prices (down 14.9% for the month) and tame inflation suggest market expectations of more interest cut rates driven by a policy shift from the RBI from neutral to accommodative.
