Answers :

1) Answer: A

The global credit ratings major Moody projected that the Indian economy is expected to clock a 6-6.3% growth in June quarter, and flagged risks of fiscal slippage arising from weaker than expected government revenues in the current fiscal.

Moody’s growth estimate is lower than the 8% projection for the first quarter made by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) last week.

Key Highlights :

India has a relatively high level of general government debt at around 81.8% of GDP for 2022-23, and low debt affordability.

Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) is an indicator of investment in the economy.

The fiscal deficit, which is the difference between government expenditure and revenue, narrowed to 6.4% of GDP in 2022-23 from 6.7% in 2021-22.

In the current fiscal, the deficit is budgeted to come in lower at 5.9% of GDP.

For the full 2023-24 and 2024-25 fiscals, Moody’s projects economic growth at 6.1% and 6.3%, respectively.

On a calendar year basis, Moody’s expects growth to be 5.5% in 2023, which could improve to 6.5% in 2024.

In its monetary policy, the RBI projected India’s GDP to expand by 6.5% in the current fiscal, on the back of supportive domestic demand conditions.

The RBI projected June quarter (Q1) growth at 8%, Q2 at 6.5%, Q3 at 6%, and Q4 at 5.7%.

Moody’s has a ‘Baa3’ sovereign credit rating on India, with a stable outlook.

Baa3 is the lowest investment grade rating.

India has a relatively high level of general government debt, estimated at around 81.8% of GDP for fiscal 2022-23, compared with the Baa-rated median of around 56%.

India also has low debt affordability, in terms of general government interest payments as a percentage of revenues, which for India is estimated at 26% for fiscal 2022-23, compared with the Baa median of around 8.4%.


2) Answer: B

India’s insurance regulator, the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI), grants a license to conduct life insurance business in India to Go Digit Life Insurance Limited.

The approval to Go Digit will be the 4th life insurance business licence issued by IRDAI this year.

With the latest addition, the number of insurers operating in the life insurance segment has gone up to 26.

About Go Digit General Insurance Ltd :

Go Digit General Insurance Ltd, funded by Fairfax Group in Canada, has refiled preliminary Initial Public Offering (IPO) papers with Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) after modifying its employee equity appreciation rights programme.

Under the initiative, SIDBI will give MSMEs access to affordable commercial financing for EV loans including hosting of telematics that could help reduce financing costs and provide data for other financial services.

Key Highlights :

The programme comes in the backdrop of SIDBI’s aim to support India’s target for 30% EV penetration by 2030 or EV30@30.

Significantly, SIDBI had announced a pilot scheme Mission 50,000-EV4ECO in April, 2023 under guidance from NITI Aayog to fund MSMEs finding it difficult to access loans to purchase EVs for their day-to-day operations and commercial use.

The mission aims to finance 50,000 EVs.

According to the Society of Manufacturers of Electric Vehicles (SMEV), EV sales had surpassed the 1 million mark in India in the financial year 2022-23 with 11,52,021 units sold, up 58% from 7,26,861 units sold in FY22.
