The trends of the 2000s will continue – but growth will be much faster – Agriculture investment will finally resume after many decades of relative sparseness, but this sector could well grow much faster than the expected 3.4% - a rural road network has been built up, high agri commodity prices would improve terms of trade towards this sector, rural human capital has improved tremendously in the 2000s, new technologies are about to enter on a mass scale, agri reforms such as the APMC acts are being overhauled. However, we would need to wait till the 2020s for the full impact of these changes to be felt – for the time being agriculture (including forestry and fishing) would barely sustain its 3.4% growth. Manufacturing opportunities would improve on account of rapidly growing domestic market as well as international markets – however energy and wage price inflation will play a role. The labour problem has not been solved yet, and expect a resurgence in labour unrest in 2010s. Transport, storage and communications will be the driving force of growth in the country in the 2010s – A large road network is going to be operational, ports are rapidly improving, air transport infrastructure is being overhauled, and most important, a strong ecosystem has been created for the telecom sector.
Overall GDP growth will be around 9.6% annually, even if the government does not do anything. It would be higher if agriculture and electricity, gas and water supply are able to break through theior long term institutional constraints. It would be lower if inflation eats into macro-economic stability and law and order conditions get out of hand.

Agriculture will become a far smaller part of the economy, and will finally account for less than 10% of the Indian economy. Together – agriculture,
mining and manufacturing would account for barely 25% of the GDP – services would be three fourths of the Indian economy. The utilities
(electricity, gas and water supply) will grow but not that much; the momentum has just not been generated yet. Some electricity projects will go on
stream, some gas pipelines will get extended, and some water related projects will be instituted - but this growing economy will become thirstier for
energy and water. This will continue to constrain manufacturing growth. But a combination of investment in the 2000s, reforms, technology
improvements, and an institutional structure have been put up in the 2000s for the transport and communication sectors. This sector will drive the
Indian economy in the 2010s. Even without any further reforms, the stage is set, the tipping point reached.

Higher economic growth at about 9.6% will lead to a per capita income growth of close to 8 percent per annum – that is households will earn about
double that they do now by 2019-20. This extra income will also reflect in a changed household budget. Household expenditures will grow by more
than 8 per cent per annum in the next decade. The overall household budget would be about 2 times higher than now in real terms. The share of food
and related products would fall from 40 percent now to 34 percent in 2019-20 (though in absolute amounts it would be about 1.8 times higher).
Transport, education, health and recreation would all be among the most rapidly growing items of consumer expenditures. Depending upon how
international energy prices evolve (it is likely that energy would be among the major subsidy items in the coming decade), the overall budget share may
actually fall – not in real terms though.
The term miscellaneous goods and services includes a range of items ranging from durables to FMCG to household help, as incomes grow, these items
would be among the fastest to rise – reflecting the evolution of aspirations of ensuring basic consumption to enjoying better lifestyles. The tipping
point is not so much in health or education in the aggregate, but in goods and services that promise better lifestyles.

What will Indians eat in 10 years? Despite the current high inflation in food products, the trends are quite unambiguous. Indians will spend more on
food, but not that much more in real terms. As governments are likely to ensure long term food inflation is kept under check through various
mechanisms, the food component will fall in households budgets. But lifestyle changes will show up in a major way in our eating habits. That is the
next tipping point – cooking at home will continue, and we will not do away with kitchens as in Thailand – but processed foods and eating out will
emerge as the among the most rapidly growing component of household budgets.
Already, not just the middle class and the affluent, but the poor as well are eating out. Nuclear families, greater demand for entertainment, womens
education and expected rise in their entering the job market – all are long term trends that will combine and create a demand. And the supply response
will not be far behind.

Health care expenditures will grow rapidly, and so will those for education. But it will be recreation and communication that will drive household
expenditures the most. The Indian household will move more and more towards lifestyle enhancing expenditures. This same theme will get reflected in
all forms of the budget. Within education and health care however, expenditures would rise dramatically at the tertiary level – the government would
have more or less withdrawn as an important player servicing the masses in vocational and even higher education as well as hospitals. A few islands in
the form of IITs and IIMs will remain and some more may also be created. A few more district hospitals may be set up, and all these are expected to be
priced much lower than what the market would dictate. But these will not be able to service a large share of the demand. That growth in demand for
health and education will be serviced by the private sector – and another tipping point will be reached in terms of the expenditures on tertiary education
and health.

from access to electricity as well as financing to purchase and operate electric appliances. The only threat to this scenario? Electricity supply.

The Copenhagen talks notwithstanding India will need more and more energy to service the demands of a growing economy. However, India will not
become an energy intensive economic power in the coming decade. The figure above shows the GDP on the X axis and India’s energy requirements
on the Y axis. India’s GDP in 2019-20 would be about 4.5 times what it was in 2001, however, total energy requirement would have barely doubled
since then. Why? First endemic lack of energy has created an economy that is not as energy dependent as (say) China. India’s growth relies more on
services that are typically less energy intensive than manufacturing. Moreover, we should expect lesser energy intensity in the emerging economy of
tomorrow as was required in the past.
Methodology: Univariate regression between energy used and natural log of GDP for India yields the relevant elasticities which were then used to
estimate energy consumption provided GDP growth occurs at 9.6% estimated above.

The demand for wheat will surpass that for rice on account of increased incomes and changing rpeferences, not to mention higher population growth in
the northern part of the country. But this will not be at the cost of coarse grains. Consumption of meats will stagnate and may even fall on account of
higher relative prices. The consumption of cash crops will continue to rise and the demand for milk, and fish is likely to grow rapidly. Overall
agriculture will steadily but slowly move towards being more of a cash crop sector. That is subsistence in agriculture is likely to become less and less
important.
Methodology: The GTAP model has been used to estimate food consumption under a general equilibrium frameowork.

Currently almost 300 million people are expected to be living under extreme poverty as defined by the Planning Commission. And this figure has been
more or less stagnant over the last 4 decades. It is well known that the rate at which poverty rates are falling is reducing – in other words, if the current
trends continue as many as 260 million persons would remain under extreme poverty even by the end of the decade. Rapid reforms can however
dramatically reduce these numbers – these reforms would generally be oriented towards ensuring that the demands of a growing economy are well met
by appropriate skills and human capital. However, creating human capital takes a long time, and especially among those who are the least privileged.
India 2020: Indicus Analytics 10
11. Hence even in very good scenarios – almost 200 million persons are likely to remain extremely poor by the end of the decade. Consequelty expect that
social safety nets would remain critical for India.
Methodology: A non-linear trend has been found in the case of both rural and urban poverty rates – this same non-linear trend was used to predict
poverty rates in the future for the limited reform estimates. The slow and rapid reform related estimates were derived using estimates of occupation
shift away from rural to urban, from subsistence self-employed to wage employed, from unorganized to organized, and from farm to non-farm
employment.

About 32% of India’s 1176.7 million people reside in Indian cities currently. This will increase to about 35.4% of the total population of 1326.2 million
by 2019 – an addition of about 100 million. The bulk of this new urban population will comprise of recent migrants.
Methodology: trend growth in share of population in urban areas has been used to first predict figures for 2009 and 2019. Population estimates by
RGICS were then used along with urban shares to predict urban population.

The 244 million households would have increased to about 288 million cross rural and urban India. India will progressively become less poor – but by
no means be able to eliminate the ranks of the extremely poor. Those households earning less than 75000 per annum will fall from 23 million to less
than 12 million in urban India and from 96.7 million currently to less than 77 million in rural areas. At the same time the number of households that
can be classified as highly affluent (> 10 lakh per year) will rise from 4 million currently to 12.5 million in urban areas; and from barely 1.5 million to 3.6
million in rural areas. But the greatest increase is going to be among the middle classes – the great Indian middle class will finally become a reality in
both rural and urban India.
Methodology: Indicus primary data was used to estimate income distribution for 2009-10. Sub-sectoral growth in incomes for the 2000s were then used
to estimate incomes of every household for 20019-20 under the assumption that these same growth rates continue. Hence household income growth
for those households in agriculture is significantly lower than for those who are in (say) telecommunications or financial sectors.

Source: Indicus estimates using data from World Development Indicators, CSO, and RGI.
Methodology: States GSDP growth was forecast using trend growth in the 2000s for that in 2010s. The population forecasts are from the Registrar
General of India estimates. This yielded the expected PC GDP of the states. The PPP estimates were then done for the states of India using the
currently available estimate of about 9.8 Rupees to the PPP US$. These were then compared with the world Banks estimates for PPP of different
states.
