आज रिज़र्व बैंक ने अक्तूबर-दिसंबर 2019 में औद्योगिक आउटलुक सर्वेक्षण (आइओएस) के 88वें चक्र के परिणाम जारी किए। इस सर्वेक्षण में क्यू3:2019-20 के लिए भारत के विनिर्माण क्षेत्र में कंपनियों द्वारा कारोबारी परिस्थिति के गुणात्मक मूल्यांकन और क्यू 4: 2019-201 के लिए उनकी प्रत्याशाओं को समाहित किया गया है। सर्वेक्षण के इस चक्र में 775 कंपनियों से प्रत्युत्तर प्राप्त किए गए। विशेष: A. क्यू3-2019-20 के लिए मूल्यांकन
-
क्यू3-2019-20 में ऑर्डर आप्रवाह और उत्पादन में तेजी रही, जो पिछली तिमाही में प्रदर्शित नकारात्मक भावनाओं के विपरीत बदलाव को दर्शाता है, लेकिन रोजगार की स्थिति पर भावनाएं कमजोर रहीं।
-
कमजोर वैश्विक मांग की स्थिति के अनुरूप निर्माताओं ने क्यू3-2019-20 में बाहर के देशों से मांग का आकलन सुस्त रहने का किया।
-
समग्र वित्तीय स्थिति पर भावनाएँ, जो पिछले सर्वेक्षण चक्र में अवसादपूर्ण थीं, आशावाद के क्षेत्र में आ गईं।
-
क्यू3-2019-20 में उधार राशियों पर ब्याज भुगतान, कच्चे माल की खरीद और वेतन खर्चों में नरमी के चलते प्रोद्भूत लागत दबावों का मूल्यांकन कमतर रहा लेकिन लाभ मार्जिन के ममामले में कमजोर मांग और बिक्री मूल्य और नकारात्मक भावनाओं के कारण निरंतर इसमें नरमी जारी रही।
-
क्यू3-2019-20 में कारोबार मूल्यांकन सूचकांक (BAI)2 93.0 पर था, जो कि क्यू2-2019-20 के लिए 92.5 के पहले के प्रिंट से थोड़ा अधिक था।
B. क्यू4-2019-20 के लिए अपेक्षाएं
-
आगे, क्यू4-2019-20 में उत्तरदाताओं को मांग मापदंडों जैसे- उत्पादन, ऑर्डर बुक और निर्यात में सुधार की उम्मीद है। हालांकि मामूली रूप से रोजगार की उम्मीदें भी बेहतर हुई हैं।
-
क्यू4-2019-20 में समग्र वित्तीय स्थिति पर निर्माता आशावादी बने हुए हैं।
-
बिक्री मूल्य पर आशावादिता में कमी के साथ ही निर्माता यथापूर्व लागत दबावों के बावजूद लाभ मार्जिन घटने की उम्मीद करते हैं।
-
बिजनेस एक्सपेक्टेशंस इंडेक्स (BEI) जो क्यू3: 2019-20 में 102.2 था, क्यू 4: 2019-20 में बढ़कर 105.0 हो गया।
