Government spending to support growth
Post the Covid-19 pandemic there are expectations that the budget would contain
measures to boost the economy. In the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, the
Government had undertaken targeted fiscal measures aimed at supporting the most
critical sectors given the lack of fiscal space to provide support to the economy in the
form of large cash spending.
We expect the Union Budget 2021-22 to focus on boosting growth through a
combination of higher spending along with targeted tax breaks, which will help boost
consumption. We expect continued focus on critical sectors like Housing infrastructure
and manufacturing along with continued thrust on boosting the rural economy.
As per the RBI, real GDP is expected to contract by 7.5% in FY2021, which will have an
adverse impact on Government finances in FY2021. As a result, fiscal deficit is expected
to be significantly higher than the Budget estimates of 3.6% for FY2021 as spending is
likely to be in line with budgeted estimates. However the Government will try and keep
its gross borrowing program within the revised figure of 12 Lakh cr. which will be
positive for the markets.
While total receipts for the financial year till Nov’20 are down by 17.9% YoY to 8,309
Lakh cr., expenditure is up by 4.7% YoY to 19,064 lakh cr. led by a 12.8% increase in
capital expenditure. With improvement in tax collections from Q3FY21 we expect
Government spending will remain close to budgeted levels.
Major expectations from the Union Budget
1)
Infrastructure
- Infrastructure development will be one of the priorities of
government’s efforts to revive economy, to stimulate growth and create jobs.
Government key focus will be on defense, railway and road infrastructure. Addition
to the National Infrastructure Pipeline is also possible in the budget.
2)
Housing
There is a possibility that the Government may increase the deduction
available on interest paid on self occupied house from current levels of 2 Lakh.
There is also strong possibility of increased allocation to PMAY and extension of
tax holiday for affordable housing projects till March 2022.
3)
Manufacturing
In order to boost the manufacturing sector we expect the
Government to announce hike in import duties on more items along with
expanding the scope of the 1.46 Lakh cr. PLI schemes to include more sectors.
4)
Personal income tax
The Government can try and address the slump in
consumer spending by providing tax breaks to the middle class. This Government
may extend the new optional tax regime to individuals earning greater than 15
Lakh per annum and also increase the limit of the deductions under Sec 80 C for
individuals under the old income tax regime.
5)
Auto
- While there has been a strong rebound in the Auto sector from the Covid
lows led by 2 wheelers, PV and Tractors, the MHCV space still has a long way to
recover to pre Covid levels. There is high probability that the Government will
announce an incentive based scrappage plan in the budget which will be
beneficial for the MHCV space

Gross borrowing expected to be within revised figure of 12
Lakh cr.
Due to the shortfall in tax collections it is given that fiscal deficit for FY2021 will be well
ahead of budget estimates of 3.6% for the year. However markets are expecting fiscal
deficit figure for FY201 will not exceed 7.0% of GDP given strong rebound in tax
revenues in 2HFY2021.
Fiscal deficit till November 2020 is up by 33.0% YoY and stood at 135% of full year’s
budgeted estimates. There has been a shortfall in revenue receipts till date which
along with lower disinvestment proceeds which will lead to significant revenue
shortfall for the Government in FY2021.
Total receipts for the financial year till Nov’20 are down by 17.9% YoY to 8,309 Lakh cr.
Revenue receipts are down by 17.3% YoY while non-debt capital receipts are down by
37.2% YoY. Tax revenue for the financial year till date is down by 8.3% YoY to 6.9 Lakh
cr. and has held up much better than expected.
The Government has already increased its gross borrowing plan to 12 Lakh crore from
the budgeted 7.8 Lakh cr. in light of revenue shortfall due the Covid-19 pandemic. We
think that the Government will try and stick to the revised gross borrowing figure and
can shift some of the spending off balance sheet if required.
Government spending to remain along budgeted lines
Despite the shortfall in revenues the Government has so far shown no signs of cut back
in spending. Till Nov’20 total Government expenditure is up by 4.7% YoY to 19.1 Lakh
cr. While revenue expenditure are up by 3.7% YoY to 16.7 Lakh cr., capital expenditure
are up by 12.8% YoY to 2.4 Lakh cr.
While the Government has in the past tried to keep its fiscal deficit figure in check by
cutting back expenditure, we do not envisage any cut back in spending this year.
Boosting growth is of paramount importance for the Government especially in the
backdrop of improving economic conditions and tax collections. The economic
rebound from the Covid lows has been quicker than expected which has led to GST
collections registering a growth of 7.7% YoY to 3.25 Lakh crore in Q3FY2021.
With the economy showing continued signs of improvement we expect tax collections
to improve further in the fourth quarter which will provide revenues for the
Government to help meet its budgeted expenditure. However it is possible that the
Government could either rollover of some expenditure to the next financial year or shift
some of the expenditure off balance sheet.
As per various rating agencies real GDP is expected to expand by 9-10% in FY2022
which should result in nominal GDP growth of ~14%. As a result tax collections are
expected to rebound in FY2022 due to strong growth in nominal GDP as well as
increased tax buoyancy. This should help the Government increase spending in FY2022
while ensuring a lower fiscal deficit as compared to FY2021. Markets are also expecting
that the Government will provide a revised medium term glide path for lowering fiscal
deficit in the Union Budget.

Likely focus areas in Union Budget
n
Agriculture
- Government expected to reiterate its
focus on the rural sector.
n The Government is also expected to increase outlays
on the MNREGA scheme and continue its focus on
rural electrification and roads.
n
Infrastructure
Given that Infrastructure is one of
the key focus area of the Government we don’t think
that there is going to be any cut back in capital
expenditure despite shortfall in revenues.
n We believe that the Government would use the
Union Budget to highlight their plans and execution
over the next few years. National Infrastructure
Pipeline (NIP) gives us broad idea about investment
by Government in Infrastructure.
n
Housing
- The Government would like to increase
the tax bracket available to Interest paid on
housing loans to create demand in residential real
estate. As real estate faces slow down since demon.
Several state governments have also cut duties to
boost the demand.
n The government can also give some additional
benefit to first time home buyers or can also
expand the definition of affordable housing to
increase the scope for new home buyers.
n
Pharma
- The government can incentivise the
domestic manufacturing of APIs, as of now more
than 70% of APIs have been imported from China.
n The Government can also increase the export link
benefit to domestic manufacture to boost the
export of formulations and finished dosages. As of
now India exports more than USD 20 billion every
year.
Impact on sectors
n Positive for all Agri input related companies like
Coromandel International as farmer income will
go up marginally.
n This will be positive for the FMCG sector, as it will
increase the disposable income in the hands of
rural households. Positive for FMCG companies
like Dabur, Marico, etc.
n Positive for tractor companies like Escorts, M&M
and Swaraj Engine as there will be increased
demand for farm equipments.
n Positive for L&T and other infrastructure
companies such as PNC Infratech, KNR
Constructions etc
n Positive for cement companies such as
Ultractech, ACC, Shree Cement, JK Laxshmi etc.
n Positive for railways allied companies like
Titagarh Wagons, Texmaco Rail etc.
n Positive for residential real estate companies like
Oberoi Realty Ltd and Brigade enterprises.
n Positive for different housing allied sectors and
company like Asian Paints, Century Plyboards.
n Positive for companies who will set up new
manufacturing plants for manufacturing APIs.
n Positive for export oriented companies like -
Lupin, Cadila.

n
Make in India
There are expectations that there
could be sector specific increase in import duties
on specific items while the inverted duty structure
on certain sectors could also be rationalized.
n There are expectations that the Government could
significantly increase the expanding the scope of
the 1.46 Lakh cr. PLI schemes and also expand the
applicability of the scheme from the current 10
sectors.
n
Auto-
The year 2020 was one of the toughest years
the Indian automobile industry as sales were
adversely impacted due to the Covid-19 crisis
immediately post implementation of BS6 norms.
While 2 wheeler, PV and tractor sales have
rebounded strongly MHCV sales are still
languishing. One of the key demands from the
auto sector has been introduction of an Incentive-
based scrap page policy.
Budget Picks
n Positive for domestic consumer durable
companies with strong domestic
manufacturing capabilities and for ODM firms.
n Positive for sectors like footwear, chemicals &
agrochemicals
n The policy will make it obligatory to dispose of
old vehicles (older than a specified period of
holding) which will create demand for new
(commercial) vehicles in the market. (Positive for
companies like Ashok Leyland, Tata Motors,
Automotive axle etc in CV space.
