Macro-economic forecasts and insights
Economic Outlook
Economic Outlook provides CMIE’s view on where the Indian economy stands and where it is likely headed. This view is derived from a careful and continuous monitoring of all new data releases.
Time-series analysis and an integrated view of the Indian economy form the core of CMIE’s forecasts. Detailed and comprehensive statistical forecasts are presented in Economic Outlook every quarter.
Every data release is analysed at two levels:
- Tidings: A quick descriptive presentation of new facts.
- Analysis: An analytical and contextual intepretation of the new data release. Opinions and essays that describe the implications of the new/latest developments.
Three Monthly Reviews - Macro-economic Performance, Sectoral Performance and Financial Market Performance summarise CMIE’s views on the current state of the Indian economy and its future.
The core strength of Economic Outlook is the underlying database. The service provides full access to this database. Time series of over half a million indicators are provided for multiple frequencies and in the form of several derivations. The full set of indicators including all frequencies and derivations add up to over 2.9 million time-series. All these are presented in intelligently laid-out tabulations.
Tabulations are supported by a graphing tool. The data can be easily downloaded into spreadsheets or as txt files.
Economic Outlook provides scanned images of the original source documents used in building the time-series, a calendar of expected data releases, an alerts system and a useful indicator search and download facility, an excel add-in and a daily newsletter.
