Trade deficit, primary income outweighed services surplus: ICRA

India’s current account deficit (CAD) doubled sequentially to an all-time high of $36.4 billion in Q2 FY23 from $18.2 billion in the previous quarter, and was nearly four times higher than the $9.7 billion posted a year ago. CAD for FY22 was at $38.77 billion.

The Q2 CAD was equivalent to 4.4 per cent of the country’s GDP as against 2.2 per cent in the previous quarter and 1.3 per cent in the year-ago period, data released by RBI showed.

Trade deficit

Underlying the CAD in Q2 was the widening of the merchandise trade deficit to $83.5 billion from $63.0 billion in Q1 and an increase in net outgo under investment income, the central bank said in a note.

“While it was expected that the CAD would widen to an all-time high in Q2, the size of the deficit exceeded even the upper end of our forecast range of $31-34 billion,” said Aditi Nayar, Chief Economist, ICRA, adding that negative surprises in the merchandise trade deficit and primary income outweighed the higher-than-expected services surplus and secondary income flows.
