मुद्रास्फीति पर घरेलू अपेक्षाओं का सर्वेक्षण

आज, रिजर्व बैंक ने मार्च 2019 चक्र के मुद्रास्फीति पर घरेलू अपेक्षाओं के सर्वेक्षण (IESH)1 के परिणाम जारी किए। सर्वेक्षण 18 प्रमुख शहरों में आयोजित किया गया था और इसके परिणाम 5,829 शहरी परिवारों के प्रत्युत्तरों पर आधारित हैं।

विशेष:

i. दिसंबर 2018 में किए गए अंतिम सर्वेक्षण चक्र की अपेक्षा आगामी तीन महीने और आगामी एक वर्ष, दोनों की मेडियन मुद्रास्फीति अपेक्षाओं में प्रत्येक में 40 आधार अंक (बीपीएस) की गिरावट आईं है (चार्ट 1a, 1b, तालिका 2)।

ii. संचयी आधार पर मेडियन मुद्रास्फीति अपेक्षाओं में सितंबर 2018 के चक्र से अगले तीन महीनों के होरिज़न के लिए 160 आधार अंकों और अगले एक वर्ष के होरिज़न के लिए 170 आधार अंकों की गिरावट आईं है ।

iii. सर्वेक्षण के इस चक्र में परिवारों की मौजूदा मुद्रास्फीति धारणाओं और उनकी भविष्य के लिए अपेक्षाओं के बीच का अंतर भी कम हुआ है।

iv. अगले तीन महीनों में खाद्य एवं गैर-खाद्य उत्पादों और उपभोक्ता टिकाऊ वस्तुओं की कीमतों में वृद्धि की उम्मीद करने वाले उत्तरदाताओं का अनुपात दिसम्बर 2018 चक्र के मुक़ाबले बढ़ा है (तालिका 1a)।

v. दिसम्बर 2018 चक्र में अगले एक वर्ष के लिए मूल्य स्तर में बदलाव को लेकर परिवारों की गुणात्मक अपेक्षाओं में हुआ सुधार कायम था।

vi. उत्तरदाताओं के पिछले सर्वेक्षण चक्र के मुक़ाबले एक छोटे वर्ग का मानना था कि आने वाले एक वर्ष के होरिज़न में कीमतें मौजूदा दर से अधिक दर से बढ़ेंगी, जो मुख्य रूप से खाद्य कीमतों और आवास की लागत के संबंध में उनकी भावनाओं को दर्शाता है।
