2022-23 की पहली तिमाही (Q1) के लिए सेवा और आधारभूत संरचना परिदृश्य का सर्वेक्षण

आज भारतीय रिज़र्व बैंक ने 2022-23 की पहली तिमाही के दौरान संचालित सेवा और आधारभूत संरचना परिदृश्य (एसआइओएस) के तिमाही सर्वेक्षण के 33वें चक्र का परिणाम जारी किया। भविष्योन्मुखी सर्वेक्षण में सेवा और आधारभूत संरचना क्षेत्रों में कार्यरत भारतीय कंपनियों का गुणात्मक मूल्यांकन और उनकी अपेक्षाओं की कैपचरिंग मांग स्थितियों, मूल्य स्थितियों और अन्य कारोबार की शर्तों से संबंधित कारोबारी मानदंडों के एक सेट पर किया जाता है। सर्वेक्षण के इस चक्र में 758 कंपनियों ने 2022-23¹ की पहली तिमाही के लिए अपना मूल्यांकन तथा 2022-23 की दूसरी तिमाही के लिए अपनी प्रत्याशाएं दीं। कोविड 19 महामारी के कारण व्याप्त अनिश्चितता की स्थिति को देखते हुए प्रमुख मानदंडों के आधार पर आगे की दो तिमाहियों के आउटलुक का मूल्यांकन करने के लिए सर्वेक्षण के इस चक्र में एक अतिरिक्त ब्लॉक सम्मिलित किया गया है।

विशेष:

A. सेवा क्षेत्र

2022-23 की पहली तिमाही के लिए मूल्यांकन

सेवा क्षेत्र के उद्यमों ने 2022-23 की पहली तिमाही के दौरान व्याप्त समग्र कारोबार और टर्नओवर में आशावादिता दर्शाई (चार्ट-1 और सारणी-ए)।
2022-23 की पहली तिमाही के दौरान सेवा क्षेत्र में रोजगार की स्थिति सुधरी।
पिछले सर्वेक्षण दौर की तुलना में अधिक उत्तरदाताओं ने वित्त की लागत, इनपुट कीमतों और मजदूरी से उत्पन्न लागत में उच्च दबावों को महसूस किया और बिक्री मूल्यों में वृद्धि का आकलन किया।
सेवा कंपनियाँ लाभ मार्जिन पर निराशावादी बनी रहीं।

2022-23 की दूसरी तिमाही के लिए अपेक्षाएं

2022-23 की दूसरी तिमाही में सेवा क्षेत्र की कंपनियों ने मांग मानदंडों के संदर्भ मे समग्र कारोबार स्थितियों और टर्नओवर में आशावादिता दर्शाई (चार्ट-1 और सारणी-ए)।
पूर्णकालिक और अंशकालिक दोनों तरह के रोजगार के मामले में नौकरी के परिदृश्य में सुधार होने की संभावना है।
बिक्री मूल्यों में वृद्धि के साथ लागत दबाव जारी रहने की उम्मीद है।

2022-23 की तीसरी और चौथी तिमाही के लिए अपेक्षाएं

उद्यमों को वित्तीय वर्ष की दूसरी छमाही में समग्र व्यावसायिक स्थिति, टर्नओवर और रोजगार में अधिक सुधार की उम्मीद है (सारणी सी)।
इनपुट लागत दबाव वर्ष के उत्तरार्ध की छमाही में धीरे - धीरे कम होने के साथ जारी रह सकता है।

B. आधारभूत संरचना क्षेत्र

2022-23 की पहली तिमाही के लिए मूल्यांकन

आधारभूत संरचना कंपनियों ने कारोबार की समग्र स्थितियों और साथ ही साथ अपने टर्नओवर में सकारात्मक मूल्यांकन का अनुमान व्यक्त किया है (चार्ट 2 और सारणी बी)।
2022-23 की प्रथम तिमाही में लागत दबाव तेज हो गया, जिससे बिक्री मूल्यों में वृद्धि के लिए भावनाओं में मामूली तेजी आई, हालांकि लाभ मार्जिन पर धारणा कमजोर रही।

2022-23 की दूसरी तिमाही के लिए अपेक्षाएं

2022-23 की दूसरी तिमाही में उत्तरदाता समग्र व्यावसायिक स्थिति, टर्नओवर और रोजगार की स्थिति पर आशावादी थे, हालांकि पिछले सर्वेक्षण दौर की तुलना में उम्मीदें कुछ हद तक शांत थीं (सारणी बी)।
लागत दबाव जारी रहने की संभावना है, हालांकि यह मामूली रूप से कम है, और बिक्री मूल्यों में अधिक वृद्धि होने की संभावना है।

2022-23 की तीसरी और चौथी तिमाही के लिए अपेक्षाएं

वित्तीय वर्ष की दूसरी छमाही में समग्र व्यावसायिक स्थिति में क्रमिक सुधार की उम्मीद है। मांग मानकों पर भावनाओं में तेजी बनी रही है (सारणी डी)।
रोजगार की स्थिति में और सुधार होने की संभावना है।
उत्तरदाताओं को उम्मीद है कि लागत दबाव जारी रहेगा।

² Net Response (NR) is the difference between the percentage of respondents reporting optimism and those reporting pessimism. It ranges between -100 to 100. Positive value indicates expansion/optimism and negative value indicates contraction/pessimism. In other words, NR = (I – D); where, I is the percentage response of ‘Increase/optimism’, D is the percentage response of ‘Decrease/pessimism’ and E is the percentage response as ‘no change/ equal’ (i.e., I+D+E=100). For example, increase in turnover is optimism whereas decrease in cost of inputs is optimism.
