Impact of GST on Manufacturing sector in India

As we know the Indian Economy is divided into three parts i.e.
1. Agricultural 
2. Service
3.Manufacturing 

In this blog, we are going to discuss the impact of GST on the manufacturing sector.

In early stages, the agricultural sector was the most contributor for the economy, but this scenario is soon got changes as the Narasimha committee presented the LPG in India in 1990 ( Liberalization, Privatization, Globalization ). This creates a new boom in the Indian economy and soon after we saw the results as service sector started holding the grip on the economy. This is going great for the service sector, but the manufacturing industry is not responding as per the expectations. There is little noticeable difference, but it surely surpasses the agricultural industry, but it's not up to the mark many times government try to help this sector via globalization, reduction in tax and creating specific zones.
It is a theoretical part but still, we can see the service sector is contributing 50% in total GDP, and with this scenario, we actually over depending on one industry and cause our GDP is not reaching its potentials. We can achieve more growth if our manufacturing sector starts also performing for this PM Narendra Modi began to 'Make in India' campaign with the aim to be the 5th largest manufacturing country in the world by 2020. 

Following are some points on the effects of GST on the Manufacturing sector 

* GST will remove the Cascading effects of the tax. There will be only one tax so people will not have to pay different charges to the govt.

* GST gives a single registration process as there will be a no different type of registrations for manufacturing of goods 

* Main point is that now more manufacturing industries will come under the tax regime

* GST will remove different prices of goods in a different part of the country as single tax will be levied all over the country 

To understand it better I am giving you diagram.





                                                                                            
·         Indian manufacturing sector’s gross value added at basic prices based on 2011-12  price series was the US $ 350.4 billion in 2016-17
The ·         Manufacturing sector grew at a CAGR of  9.87% between FY 12 and FY 17
·          The industry rose 9.33% in FY 17.





                                                             


Manufacturing Sector performing with the other sector
·         Indian manufacturing sector recorded the highest gross capital formation behind real estate at US$ 102.96 billion in 2015-16
·         The sector’s contribution to the Indian Gross Domestic Product was 16.51% in 2016

As we see above our manufacturing sector is giving the positive response to new tax system but talking about anything about the results will not do justice with the new system as we cannot reach Mars by next morning it will take time, but as we see now, it had shown us the positive response. I will keep updating my blogs as I get new data.

Boeing 737 Max Crash How badly it is going to affect Boeing

The world was in a shock when it heard about a Boeing 737 Max had crashed in Ethiopia, and this crash killed 157 people. After this crash, some strong steps had taken by many countries, but the question arises, how much this will hit badly to Boeing. In this blog, we will see how economical it will affect Boeing.   Boeing 737 Max is a relatively new plane introduced in August 2011, and it performed its first flight in January 2016. It is a fourth generation aircraft which cost from $99.7 million to $134.9 million for a unit. They consider this plane a modern plane. It is not the first time that a plane has crashed and people died if but it is rare that an aircraft manufacturing company is to be directly blamed for the accident. Here, Boeing is in the fault because of the same model Boeing 737 Max 8 has crashed twice in five months killing all approx. Three hundred forty-six people on board and the pattern was similar in both planes as both crashed within 15 minutes of take-o...

How is India proliferating its Foreign Exchange Reserve?

How is India proliferating its Foreign Exchange Reserve?     M oney is at the core of every economic activity in the world. Governments need cash to run daily activities. Authorities usually raise funds either by capital gain or revenue gains, i.e. by selling goods and services or taking out loans. Nations usually hesitate to acquire loans as countries have to pay interest etc. And only apply for the loan for a longer period. New Delhi uses  Indian foreign exchange reserves  (made up of Indian foreign exchange or  Indian foreign exchange markets) to tackle short term needs. Thus, most of the Govt. Tries to use funds from revenue gains, but in the current coronavirus, crisis authorities are not having an adequate amount of reserves thus nations are now turning their attention to their foreign exchange reserves to counter its requirement. Thus, eventually, countries’ foreign exchange reserves are plummeting rapidly. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Republic of China...

"Bad Bank" proposal for India and bad bank list

"Bad Bank" proposal for India and bad bank list   Why India should not create it. T he banking industry is the core of any economic activity. Banks mostly rotate around the money, which acts as blood in the economy. A healthy banking system can give a boost to an economy and vice versa. Thus having a well-organised banking system becomes a need, and many nations across the globe are taking extra precautions to keep the banking system healthy. But as we know, nothing is perfect. There are many flaws and loopholes in this system which can hurt the economy in the long run. One of the biggest problems in the banking sector is the bad debt or frequently known as NPAs i.e. Non-Performing Assets. These are the loans given by any financial institution (There are many institutions but in this scenario, we will only consider the banks) to a person or a firm which fails to repay it. These NPAs are hazardous to the banking system. Bad debt should be less than 4% to 5...
