आज भारतीय रिज़र्व बैंक ने सितंबर 2021 चक्र के उपभोक्ता विश्वास सर्वेक्षण (CCS)1 के परिणाम जारी किए। अधिकांश राज्यों में कोविड-19 संबंधित प्रतिबंधों को क्रमशः वापस लेने के चलते यह सर्वेक्षण तेरह बड़े शहरों – अहमदाबाद, बेंगलुरु, भोपाल, चेन्नई, दिल्ली, गुवाहाटी, हैदराबाद, जयपुर, कोलकाता, लखनऊ, मुंबई, पटना और तिरुवनंतपुरम - में अगस्त 29 से सितंबर 7, 2021 के बीच, फील्ड साक्षात्कार द्वारा आयोजित किया गया। इसमें सामान्य आर्थिक स्थिति, रोजगार परिदृश्य, समग्र मूल्य स्थिति और पारिवारिक इकाइयों की आय और व्यय के संबंध में धारणाएं और अपेक्षाएं 5,237 पारिवारिक इकाइयों से प्राप्त की गईं।2 विशेष: I. उपभोक्ताओं ने वर्तमान सामान्य आर्थिक स्थिति, रोजगार परिदृश्य के साथ-साथ घरेलू आय और व्यय पर कम निराशावाद को दर्शाया; सितंबर 2021 के लिए वर्तमान स्थिति सूचकांक (CSI)3 में मई 2020 के बाद किए गए सर्वेक्षण चक्रों की तुलना में सुधार हुआ है (चार्ट 1 तथा तालिका 1, 2, 5 एवं 6)। II. एक वर्ष आगे की अवधि के लिए उपभोक्ता विश्वास ने जुलाई 2021 चक्र में देखी गई गति को बनाए रखा; सामान्य आर्थिक स्थिति और रोजगार परिदृश्य पर उच्च आशावाद के चलते सितंबर 2021 में भविष्य की अपेक्षाओं के सूचकांक (FEI) में और सुधार हुआ।
नोट: कृपया समय श्रृंखला डेटा के लिए एक्सेल फाइल देखें। III. परिवारों ने मुख्यतः आवश्यक वस्तुओं पर अधिक व्यय के कारण समग्र व्यय में वृद्धि की सूचना दी,; वर्तमान और भविष्य के विवेकाधीन खर्च पर निराशावाद, हालांकि, नवीनतम सर्वेक्षण दौर में कम हुआ (तालिका 7 और 8)।
