Demonetisation had no effect on Indian economy: Sitharaman
New Delhi, Jul 2 (PTI) India still continues to be the
fastest growing economy and demonetisation has had no effect
on the Indian economy, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman
told the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday.
The minister, while responding to supplementaries during
the Question Hour, said the manufacturing sector has had a
certain fall, but it is not attributable to demonetisation.
She said economic growth is high on the agenda of the
Government and various reforms are being undertaken in many
spheres to improve GDP growth.
Sitharaman said the moderation in growth momentum in
2018-19 is primarily on account of lower growth in
'Agriculture and allied', 'trade, hotel, transport, storage,
communication and services related to broadcasting' and
'public administration and defence' sectors," she said.
"If the impact of low growth in certain sectors has
impacted growth rate, particularly in agriculture and
allied activities as also in financial and real estate and
professional services, there has been a fall, particularly in
agriculture based on third advance estimates, it is believed
that there has been a 0.6 per cent decline in the output.
"If the impact on the low growth is because of outcomes
from these sectors, the manufacturing sector has had a certain
fall but which is not attributable to demonetisation," the
minister said.
She said in the last quarter, there could have been a
fall and steps have been taken to improve the economy.
"But, we are still the fastest growing economy," she
said.
Sitharaman said if the United States' growth has grown
between 1.6, 2.2, 2.9 and 2.3 per cent in 2016, 2017, 2018
and 2019, and China's growth has also decelerated from 6.7,
6.8, 6.6 and 6.3 per cent, India is still well above 7 per
cent at 7.3 per cent growth.
"While the concern of member is well taken about the last
quarter's growth having come down, it is still India which is
growing at the fastest rate and the figures are before us,"
she stressed in response to a query from a member.
The minister said as regards steps taken, the government
has taken several steps in order that more money goes to
people and that is why the PM's Kisan Samman Yojna, the
Pension Yojna, where money goes directly through DBT into the
people's hands, are activities through which people are
getting the benefit.
"Over and above that, in order that institutions will
have to extend more credit facilities for industry and for
those entrepreneurs in the ground, the credit situation and
also taking care of resolutional stressed assets through
banks is also happening," she said.
In her written reply, the finance minister said, as per
estimates available from Central Statistics Office, Growth
of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at constant prices was 6.8
percent in 2018-19, as compared to 7.2 percent in 2017-18 and
8.2 percent in 2016-17.
"Economic growth is high on the agenda of the Government.
Various reforms are being undertaken by the Government in many
spheres to improve GDP growth. The key reforms in Governments
new term include expansion to all farmers the cash transfer
scheme 'PM-Kisan' providing an income support of Rs 6000 per
year, which was earlier limited to farmers with a land holding
of less than 2 hectares," she said.
Along with this, the Government has launched voluntary
pension scheme for small and marginal farmers and small
shopkeepers or retail traders, she claimed.
To give focused attention to issues of growth, Government
has constituted a five-member cabinet committee on investment
and growth chaired by Prime Minister. PTI SKC
