Elevated commodity prices will keep spending on food and fuel subsidies high for economies like India, says Moody's Investors Service.
It may be early to judge, but long years of past subsidies have made little difference; manufacturing's GDP share is stuck at 17-18% for 16 years while employment share has fallen to 10.9% in FY21.
The Survey says that this is an outcome of “the decline in global crude prices, decontrol of prices, and better targeting through direct benefit transfer of subsidies”.
