Inflation eased in February and authorities forecast economic growth!

The India’s rupee completed its biggest quarterly advance since September 2012 as foreign investor’s boosted purchases of the nation’s assets on optimism a new government will hasten an economic recovery. Inflation eased in February and authorities forecast economic growth will pick up from a decade-low and deficits will shrink in the fiscal year ending March 31. Foreign funds have pumped $9.3 billion into Indian shares and bond this year. The rupee gained 3.2 percent since Dec. 31 to 59.89 per dollar in Mumbai, prices from local banks compiled by Bloomberg show.


The currency rose 0.7 percent today and touched 59.6850, the strongest since July 30. It has rebounded 15 percent from a record low in August. Consumer-price inflation eased to a two-year low in February and wholesale-price gains slowed to the least in nine months, official data show. The current-account deficit will be kept below $40 billion this fiscal year, compared with a record $88 billion in the previous 12 months, and the budget deficit will narrow to 4.6 percent of gross domestic product from 4.9 percent, according to Finance Minister.
