Survey of Professional Forecasters on Macroeconomic Indicators– Results of the 83rd Round

The Reserve Bank has been conducting the survey of professional forecasters (SPF) since September 2007. The responses for 83rd round of the survey were received during July 12-31, 2023, wherein forty panellists participated. The survey results are summarised in terms of their median forecasts (Annexes 1-7), along with quarterly paths for key variables.

Highlights:

1. Output

  • Real gross domestic product (GDP) growth forecast for 2023-24 has been revised up by 10 basis points (bps) to 6.1 per cent; it is expected to grow by 6.5 per cent in 2024-25 (Table 1).

  • SPF panellists placed GDP growth forecasts in the range of 5.5-7.0 per cent for 2023-24 and in the range of 5.9-7.6 per cent for 2024-25; the range for 2023-24 forecast broadly remained unchanged from the last round (Annexes 1 and 2).

  • Forecasters have assigned highest probability to real GDP growth in the range 6.0-6.4 per cent for both 2023-24 and 2024-25 (Chart 1).

Chart 1- Probability distrubution of GDP

Note: Tail parts of the distributions are not presented in this chart but are included in Annex 6.

  • Annual growth rates in real private final consumption expenditure (PFCE) and real gross fixed capital formation (GFCF) for 2023-24 are expected at 6.1 per cent and 7.1 per cent, respectively.
  • Real gross value added (GVA) growth projection for 2023-24 has been revised up by 10 bps to 5.9 per cent.

  • In terms of quarterly path, real GDP is expected to grow (y-o-y) by 7.5 per cent in Q1:2023-24 and thereafter moderate to 6.2 per cent in Q2:2023-24, 5.9 per cent in Q3:2023-24 and further to 5.5 per cent in Q4:2023-24 (Table 2).

2. Inflation

  • Annual headline inflation, based on consumer price index (CPI), is expected at 5.2 per cent for 2023-24 and 4.7 per cent during 2024-25 (Annexes 1 and 2).

  • Headline CPI inflation (y-o-y) is expected at 5.6 per cent in Q2:2023-24 and is likely to remain in the range of 5.2-5.5 per cent during the next three quarters (Table 3). Headline inflation forecast path has been revised up by 70 bps for Q2:2023-24 and by 20 bps for the second half of 2023-24.

  • CPI inflation, excluding food and beverages, pan, tobacco and intoxicants, and fuel and light, is expected to remain in the narrow range of 4.8-5.0 per cent over the next four quarters.

  • Forecasters have assigned the highest probability to CPI inflation lying in the range of 5.5-5.9 per cent in Q2:2023-24 and Q3:2023-24; and in the range of 5.0-5.4 per cent in the subsequent two quarters (Chart 2).

3. External Sector

  • Merchandise exports and imports are projected to decline by (-)5.5 per cent and (-)5.0 per cent, respectively, in US dollar terms during 2023-24 and are expected to grow by 7.0 per cent and 7.8 per cent, respectively, during 2024-25 (Table 4).

  • SPF panellists expect current account deficit (CAD) at 1.4 per cent (of GDP at current market prices) in 2023-24 and at 1.5 per cent in 2024-25.
