As a slightly oversimplified mental model, India exports software services to America and imports consumer goods from China. The surplus with America is more than matched by the deficit with China.
Now India will (have to) import more iPhones, GPUs, LPG, nuclear plants, fighter jets, whiskey and so on from America to balance the bilateral trade.
In order not to blow up the current account deficit, India has to find ways to reduce consumer goods imports from China, and that means increasing domestic production. Since this cannot happen overnight, in the short run imported consumer goods prices could go up - that shows up as inflation.
Indian manufacturers have to step up and set up capacity and acquire the know how when needed.
My year end musings: India at 77.
1. Go for growth. Let’s get enterprise and animal spirits firing.
2. ROTI is Return on time invested. Go relentlessly for productivity.
3. Shun protectionism. It may benefit in the short term. Long term it makes us uncompetitive.
4. We need a plan to eliminate the current account deficit in reasonable time.
5. Increase investment in defence. Power is power. Safety is prerequisite for prosperity.
6. Continue with gentle and steady fiscal consolidation from here.
7. Avoid over regulation and micro management across sectors. Zero accident policy is high risk to growth.
8. Respect free and fair markets. Intervene only if there is evidence of bubbles or manipulation.
9. India is 1.4 billion people. Let many flowers bloom.
10.We must get out of having amongst the most polluted cities in the world. Let us walk the talk.
