On the backdrop of global economy signalling slowing down with vast cross-country variation, India’s real GDP (constant prices) marked second highest growth in the last five quarters by witnessing an impressive growth of 7.6 per cent year-on-year in the Q2: 2023-24. The GDP growth is significantly higher than the 6.2 per cent growth in the same quarter of the preceding financial year. However, in terms of momentum, real GDP growth moderated in comparison to the 7.8 per cent growth registered in Q1: 2023-24. In value terms, real GDP reached to ₹ 41.7 lakh crore in Q2: 2023-24 as against ₹ 38.8 lakh crore during the corresponding period of previous year. Components of GDP indicates that investment has been a major driver that fuelled the GDP growth during the quarter. The share of Gross fixed capital formation (GFCF) in GDP rose to 35.3 per cent in Q2: 2023-24 relative to 34.2 per cent in Q1: 2023-24. However, consumption demand remained relatively subdued and trade deficit also pulled down the GDP (at 2011-12 prices) growth during the quarter. GDP at current prices in Q2 2023-24 is estimated at ₹71.66 lakh crore, as against ₹65.67 lakh crore in Q2 2022- 23, showing a growth of 9.1 percent as compared to 17.2 percent in Q2 2022-23. 1.2 Retail inflation measured by Headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) moderated to 5.0 per cent (year-on-year basis) in September 2023 relative to 4.9 per cent in June 2023. On momentum basis inflation softened by 180 bps in September 2023 compared to August 2023 mirroring waning food and beverages prices and fuel prices on a month to month basis. The Consumer Food Price Index (CFPI), which increased to as high as 11.5 per cent in July 2023 before it declined to 6.6 per cent in September 2023, remains higher than 4.5 per cent recorded in June 2023. However, the decline in inflation continued in October, but increased in November. On the other hand, Wholesale Price Index (WPI) continued the deflationary trend during Q2: 2023-24. Price deflation in the wholesale market intensified to 0.52 per cent in October, compared to 0.26 per cent in September. However, compared to June 2023 prices increased in September 2023. In November, WPI inflation moved to positive territory after 7 months. Prices of mineral oil, non-food 1and electricity remained in contraction mode during Q2: 2023-24 which pulled the WPI down.

Steady production growth in all the three sub sectors, i.e., mining, manufacturing and electricity pulled the production growth up. Manufacturing sector grew by 4.9 per cent in September 2023 compared to 3.5 per cent in June 2023. Electricity registered a growth of 9.9 per cent in September 2023 compared to 4.2 per cent in June 2023. Relative to June 2023, within the use-based goods, all categories registered growth in September 2023. However, during Q2: 2023-24 the growth rate varied with IIP registered growth of as high as 10.3 per cent in August 2023. 1.4 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)1 in its recent report flagged weak global trade growth during first half of 2023. Further, World Trade 1 Restoring Growth, OECD Economic Outlook, November 2023. 2Organisation (WTO)2 in its latest projections, downgraded world merchandise trade volume forecast for 2023 to just 0.8 per cent and upward revised its projections to 3.4 per cent for 2024. India’s merchandise exports surged in Q2: 2023-24 to reach USD 107.4 billion relative to USD 104.0 billion in Q1:2023-24. On a sequential basis, India’s petroleum export was the primary driver behind the surge in exports. India’s petroleum products exports stood at USD 22.8 billion in Q2: 2023-24 compared to USD 19.0 billion in Q1: 2022-23. On the other hand, India’s import payment too expanded and stood at USD 166.9 billion in Q2:2023-24 relative to USD 160.0 billion in Q1: 2022-23. With stronger momentum in imports than exports trade deficit widened to USD 59.6 billion in Q2:2023-24 relative to USD 56.0 billion in Q1:2022-23. 1.5 The net foreign direct investment declined to USD 4544 million during April-September 2023 compared to USD 19601 million during the corresponding period a year ago primarily due to a moderation in gross FDI and a rise in repatriation. On the financing side, foreign portfolio investment (FPI) flows have remained buoyant during April- September 2023 with net FPI inflow at USD 20257 million compared to outflow of 8098 million in the corresponding period last year.

October 5, 2023. 3Section 2: Debt Management - Primary Market Operations A. Government Finances 2.1 As per provisional estimates of the Controller General of Accounts (CGA), Central Government gross fiscal deficit till September 2023 was 39.3 per cent of the full year's budgetary estimate. In absolute terms, actual deficit upto September, 2023 stood at ₹ 7.0 lakh crore as against the budgeted estimate of ₹ 17.9 lakh crore for the financial year. 2.2 According to the provisional estimates of CGA, tax revenue and non-tax revenue reached 49.8% and 78.5% per cent of the budget estimates. While tax revenue was narrower than 52.3% of budget estimate in the last fiscal year, non-tax revenue increased from 58.4% of budget forecast in the same period last year. Main reason for increase in non-tax revenue relates to spike in surplus transfer by the Reserve Bank of India of ₹87,416 crore. On the expenditure side, Government expenditure upto September 2023 was ₹21.2 lakh crore, or 47.1% of the annual goal, higher than 46.2% in the same period last year.

The temporary cash flow mismatches, in case of deficit in the cash account of the Central Government, are largely managed through a combination of issuance of Treasury Bills, Cash Management Bills and access to the Ways and Means Advances facility from RBI. Surplus cash balances in Government cash account are lent in market (through RBI) or may be used for buy-back of securities from the market. Further, the RBI conducts purchase/ sale of G-Secs under its Open Market Operations, whenever required, based on its assessment of prevailing and evolving liquidity conditions. 3.2 During Q2 2023-24, the cash balance of the Central Government was in surplus and Government didn’t resort to WMA. 3.3 The net average daily liquidity by the RBI under Liquidity Adjustment Facility (LAF) including Marginal Standing Facility, Standing Deposit Facility and Special Liquidity Facility tightened to (-) ₹87,455.3 crore during Q2 2023-24. Factors such as higher currency leakage during the festive season, government cash balances and RBI’s market operation contributed toward tightening of liquidity during the quarter.

Consequently, the Standing Deposit Facility (SDF) was adjusted to 6.25 per cent and the marginal standing facility (MSF) rate to 6.75 per cent. The MPC stated that its decisions were in consonance with the objective of achieving the medium-term target for consumer price index (CPI) inflation of 4 per cent within a band of +/- 2 per cent, while supporting growth. 3.5 The net amount mobilised through Treasury Bills (under competitive and non-competitive bidding) stood (-) at ₹ 86,983 crore in Q2 2023-24.

Fully Serviced Bonds Yield on Primary Issuances of G-Secs and Maturity of Outstanding Stock of Market Loans 4.2 During the quarter, the yield on Indian domestic bond remained volatile but mostly surged across the term structure. The G-sec yields hardened in tandem with US treasury yields; which surge on the back of stronger than expected US GDP data; the downgrade of US credit rating by Fitch. Yield on G-Sec eased in the second half of August but firmed up again in first half of September before softening in mid-September primarily taking cues from lower than expected domestic CPI inflation. On the other hand, US treasury too registered ease in yield compared to August, however, towards the end of the month yields hardened on the back of strong expectation of prolonged period of elevated interest rate with resilient economic data and higher inflation. The weighted average yield hardened to 7.25 % in Q2 2023-24 relative to 7.13 % in Q1 2023-24 on new issuance. Further, the weighted average maturity of issuances of dated securities moderated to 17.57 years in Q2 2023-24 (17.58 years in Q1 2023-24). The weighted average maturity of outstanding stock of dated securities increased to 12.22 years at the end of Q2 of 2023-24 relative to 12.18 years at the end of Q1 of 2023-24. 11Table 4. 2: Yield and Maturity of Dated Securities of Central Government Issues during the year/ Qtr Outstanding Stock* Weighted Weighted Year Weighted Average Average Weighted Average Average Yield Maturity (years) Coupon Maturity (years) (%) (%) 1 2 3 4 5 2010-11 7.92 11.62 7.81 9.64 2011-12 8.52 12.66 7.88 9.60 2012-13 8.36 13.50 7.97 9.66 2013-14 8.48 14.28 7.98 10.00 2014-15 8.51 14.66 8.09 10.23 2015-16 7.89 16.07 8.08 10.50 2016-17 7.16 14.76 7.99 10.65 2017-18 6.98 14.13 7.85 10.62 2018-19 7.77 14.73 7.84 10.40 2019-20 6.84 16.15 7.71 10.72 2020-21 5.79 14.49 7.27 11.31 2021-22 6.28 16.99 7.12 11.71 2021-22 Q1 6.11 16.92 7.21 11.51 2021-22 Q2 6.26 16.51 7.15 12.31 2021-22 Q3 6.33 16.88 7.09 11.69 2021-22 Q4 6.66 17.56 7.12 11.71 2022-23 7.32 16.05 7.26 11.94 2022-23 Q1 7.23 15.69 7.12 11.87 2022-23 Q2 7.33 15.62 7.15 11.96 2022-23 Q3 7.38 16.56 7.23 12.03 2022-23 Q4 7.34 16.58 7.26 11.94 2023-24 Q1 7.13 17.58 7.28 12.18 2023-24 Q2 7.25 17.57 7.28 12.22 *: As at the end of period. 4.3 The maturity profile of outstanding Government debt as on end September 2023 mirrors elongation of maturity profile of outstanding Government debt. The proportion of debt (dated securities) maturing in less than one year stands at 4.6. per cent at end-September 2023 (3.0per cent at end-June 2023). The proportion of debt maturing within 1-5 years at 21.3 per cent at end-September 2023 was lower than its level of 23.6 per cent at end-June 2023. Debt maturing in the next five years worked out to 25.9 per cent of total outstanding debt at end-September 2023 i.e.,5.2 per cent of outstanding stock, on an average, needs to be repaid every year over the next five years. Thus, the roll-over risk in dated securities portfolio remains low (Table 4.3). 12Table 4. 3: Maturity Profile of Outstanding Dated Securities of Central Government (Amount in ₹ crore) Maturity Buckets Quarter at the end-Sep 2023 Quarter at the end-Jun 2023 (Residual Maturity) Less than 1 year 455518 (4.6) 281429 (3.0) 1-5 years 2279225 (23) 2224874 (23.6) 5-10 years 3105867 (31.4) 2827259 (30) 10-20 years 1945761 (19.7) 2097273 (22.3) Above 20 years 21072927(21.3) 1983403 (21.1) Total 9893727 9414238 Note: Figures in parentheses represent per cent of total Ownership Pattern 4.4 The ownership pattern of Central Government securities indicates that the share of commercial banks surged to 38.0 per cent at end-September 2023 highest since September 2020. Further, the share of insurance companies and FPIs moderated to 26.0 per cent and 1.6 per cent, respectively at end-September 2023. The share of RBI continued to decline to 13.1 per cent at the end of quarter September 2023 relative to 13.8 per cent at the end of quarter June 2023 (Table 4.4). 4.5 Similar pattern was observed in case of treasury bills with majority holding of commercial banks surged to 56.3 per cent at end September 2023.

Government security yields 5.1 During July – September 2023 quarter, yields on government securities have hardened across the curve due to rise in US treasury yields, firmness in crude oil prices as well as liquidity measures taken by RBI in its monetary policy in August 2023. The major factors which affected the secondary market during the quarter are as under: (i) The RBI left the policy repo rate unchanged at 6.5% in its third bi-monthly policy meeting of current financial year and maintained the LAF corridor at 50 bps. The stance was maintained at ‘withdrawal of accommodation’ to ensure that inflation progressively aligns with the target while supporting growth. The Central Bank also re-emphasized its commitment towards ensuring price and financial stability with a progressive movement towards the 4% within a band of +/-2% medium-term inflation target. Further, it was decided that fortnight beginning August 12, scheduled banks shall maintain an incremental cash reserve ratio (I-CRR) on the increase of their net demand and time liabilities (NDTL) between May 19 and July 28, 2023. The liquidity tightening measure impacted the governments yields in the secondary market. (ii) On global front, US Treasury yields rose significantly during the quarter under review. The 10-year yields hardened from 3.84% at the closing on 30th June, 2023 to 4.58 % as on 29th September, 2023, thus higher by 74 bps during the quarter. The US Federal Reserve Chairman also indicated that Federal Reserve is prepared to raise interest rate higher and hold it there in order to bring down inflation. ECB also reiterated its expectations of inflation remaining too high for too long, leaving the door open for further tightening amidst growing risk of recession. (iii) Brent crude prices also hardened during the quarter after Saudi Arabia extended its voluntary oil production cuts of 1 million barrels per day until the end of December, 2023. In addition, Russia also extended voluntary reduction of oil export by 3 lakh barrel per day until the end of the year. These measures led to hardening of Brent 15crude price from 75.10 $/bbl as on 30th June, 2023 to 92.07$/bbl as on 29th September, 2023. (iv) Because of these factors, the yields on government securities hardened during the quarter across the yield curve. The yield on the 10-year benchmark security hardened from 7.12% at the close of the quarter on 30th June, 2023 to 7.22% at the close of 29th September, 2023, thus hardening by 10 bps during the quarter. 5.2 The other factors which affected secondary market during the quarter under the review were as under: a) Inflation: The headline retail (CPI) inflation for the month of July, August and September 2023 was registered at 7.44%, 6.83% and 5.02% and reflecting the gradual decline in inflation rate. The higher inflation in July, 2023 was due to rise in food inflation in general and vegetable inflation in particular. Tomato prices was most significant variable in pushing headline inflation above the 7% mark in July, 2023, however subsequently moderation in inflation was observed after the easing in vegetable prices as well as cut in the LPG prices by ₹ 200 per cylinder at the end of August, 2023. b) Wholesale Price Index (WPI) inflation also remains in negative territory during the quarter, however gradual increase in WPI was observed with a figure at (-) 1.36% in July, (-) 0.52% in August and (-) 0.26% in September 2023. 5.3 The spread in yields between 10-1 year was at 20 bps as on 29th September, 2023 against 23 bps as on 30th June, 2023 showing more hardening of yields in shorter tenure securities due to liquidity measures taken by RBI. Further, the yields spread in 30-10 year segment was 17 bps on 29th September, 2023 against 24 bps as on 30th June, 2023 reflecting more hardening of yields in 10 years segment in comparison to 30-year segment mainly due to higher demand of longer security by the insurance and pension funds (Table 5.1 and Chart 5.2). 16Chart 5. 1: Movement in 10-Year Benchmark Yield in G-Sec Market 7.30 7.20 7.10 7.00 6.90 Table 5. 1: Yield Spreads (bps) Yield spread between 30-06-2023 29-09-2023 30-09-2022 10-1 year 23 20 46 30-10 year 24 17 12 30-1 year 47 37 58 10-5 year 1 -2 5 (Source: FBIL) 5.4 Yields on government securities in all the tenure softened during the quarter due to reasons as mentioned above.

The lower trading volume in Q2 of 2023-24, compared to previous quarter may be mainly due to hardening in yields in domestic market. 5.8 The share of Central Government dated securities in the total outright volume of transactions in Q2 2023-24, was registered higher at 85 percent. The share is higher than 82 percent registered in corresponding period of 2022-23. The share of Central Government 19securities in repo transactions increased to 75 per cent during Q2 2023-24, compared to 73 per cent registered in Q1 2023-24. It is also higher than the level of 69 per cent registered in the corresponding period of 2022-23. 5.9 The annualised outright turnover ratio for G-Secs (including T-Bills and SDLs) for Q2 2023-24, was slightly lower at 3.50 (3.93 during Q1 2023-24,). The annualised total turnover ratio (outright plus repo transactions) also increased to 12.84 during Q2 of 2023-24, from 12.67 during Q2 of 2022-23.
