This will test the resilience of domestic demand,\u201d&nbsp;Crisil chief economist Dharmakirti Joshi said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aditi Nayar, his counterpart at Icra, in her report pencilled a&nbsp;6.5 per cent growth in Q2 of the current fiscal, nearly half of the year-ago quarter&nbsp;when the economy had clipped at 12.7 per cent, but which is still a tad higher than the monetary policy committee\u2019s September forecast of 6.3 per cent and at 6.5 per cent in&nbsp;gross value added (GVA)&nbsp;less than half of 13.5 per cent a year ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Main Causes For This Downturn:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lower numbers to the mixed crop output trends revealed by the advance estimates of&nbsp;kharif production,&nbsp;adverse input cost movements for certain sectors with a higher fuel intensity, as well as the impact of the&nbsp;flagging external demand on non-oil merchandise exports, which whittled down the gains from robust demand for contact-intensive services, healthy&nbsp;capital spending by government and pre-festive season stocking of goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paring growth forecast only by 30 bps as&nbsp;domestic demand still remains supportive, helped by a catch-up in contact-based services, government capex, relatively accommodative financial conditions, and overall normal monsoons for the fourth time in a row.&nbsp;The ripple effect of the global slowdown&nbsp;will be felt more next fiscal, which will put domestic demand under pressure as interest rate hikes get transmitted more to consumers, and the catch-up in contact-based services fades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About The GDP Components:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GDP growth over pre-Covid levels is expected to double to over 8% in Q2, up from 3.8 percent in the previous quarter. The agency estimates the sectoral growth in Q2 to be driven by the&nbsp;services sector (9.4 per cent), with a subdued trend foreseen for the&nbsp;industry (2 per cent), and agriculture, forestry and fishing (2.5 per cent).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the&nbsp;markdown in near-term growth, the country is expected to remain a growth outperformer over the medium-run, and expected GDP growth to average&nbsp;6.6 per cent between fiscals 2024 and 2026, compared to the&nbsp;3.1 per cent global growth forecast by the International Monetary Fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Other Emerging Economies:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>China&nbsp;(4.5 per cent growth estimated for 2023-25),&nbsp;Indonesia&nbsp;(5.2 per cent),&nbsp;Turkey&nbsp;(3 per cent) and&nbsp;Brazil&nbsp;(1.6 per cent).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About CRISIL:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Credit Rating Information Services of India Limited (CRISIL)&nbsp;is an Indian analytical company providing rating, advisory, risk &amp; policy, and research, and&nbsp;it is a subsidiary of the American company S&amp;P Global.
