The report also said that with 8.2 per cent growth rate in FY2024, continued reforms are crucial to improving business transactions and logistics, boosting <keyword id="20423043" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="private-sector-investment" source="keywords">private sector investment</keyword>, and reducing reliance on public capital. It said equity markets are expected to stay dynamic and competitive due to strong growth prospects and better regulation, and foreign inflows into Indian government bonds have surged since the country joined major emerging market indexes, with further growth anticipated. To maximize trade benefits, India must develop infrastructure and geopolitical strategies, particularly regarding its extensive coastline, said the first edition of 'India Forward: Emerging Perspectives' report. Nearly 90 per cent of India's trade is seaborne, necessitating robust port infrastructure to manage increasing exports and bulk commodity imports, it added. Noting that India faces rising domestic energy demands and can look to sustainable technologies, including renewables and low-emission fuels, balancing energy security with its energy transition plans, the report stated that agriculture will rely on advanced technologies and new policies to improve infrastructure and productivity. The need is to address critical infrastructure issues such as irrigation, storage, and supply distribution to ensure food security and economic stability, it added.

Aditi Nayar, Chief Economist and Head - Research &amp; Outreach, ICRA said the Survey stresses that in the medium term, growth needs to be supported by the private corporate sector as well as the state governments. On inflation, she said that "managing inflation is not just the prerogative of the RBI and its MPC, and would require active intervention by the Centre, especially in the arena of food price management. The realisation of both these paradigms is crucial to ensure an optimal growth-inflation mix over the medium term."

"Looking ahead to FY'25, several indicators such as robust private consumption, increased bank lending activity and improved corporate capital expenditure indicate towards a good year ahead," he added.

The parents were right, folks; we should have been looking out for a government job, especially if you reside in the startup capital of India. In a move that has left <keyword id="19974189" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="private-sector" source="keywords">private sector</keyword> employees green with envy, the <keyword id="19896017" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="karnataka" source="keywords">Karnataka</keyword> cabinet on Monday decided to implement the recommendations of the <keyword id="20985744" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Seventh-Pay-Commission" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Seventh Pay Commission" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Seventh Pay Commission">Seventh Pay Commission</keyword>, resulting in an impressive 27.5% hike in the basic salary of state government employees. <h2><keyword id="20727223" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="pay-hike" source="keywords">Pay hike</keyword> like few others</h2>The Chief Minister is expected to make the official announcement in the Legislative Assembly, detailing how over seven lakh state government employees will benefit from this substantial increase starting August 1, as per sources. The Seventh Pay Commission, chaired by former chief secretary K Sudhakar Rao, has recommended this hefty pay rise, which will cost the state exchequer an additional Rs 17,440.15 crore annually. This move comes on the heels of the interim 17% salary hike given by the former Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai in March 2023, to which the current administration is adding another 10.5%, making the total hike 27.5%. <div type="Article" hostid="261" msid="111663090" title="The latest trick companies could be using to pay workers less" mstype="2" mssubtype="0"></div>The decision for this remarkable pay raise wasn't just an act of benevolence, however. The Karnataka State Government Employees Association had announced plans to go on an indefinite strike starting August, pressuring the Siddaramaiah government to act decisively. With this hike, the state administration aims to not only meet the demands of its employees but also to bolster morale and productivity within its workforce. <h2>Miles above the average</h2>To put this in perspective, let's compare the raise to the private sector. HR research firm Aon's latest survey indicates that while India Inc. is set to offer an average hike of 9.5% in 2024, the manufacturing sector is expected to be the most generous with a 10.1% increase. Financial institutions come close with a 9.9% hike, and Global Capability Centres (GCCs) of multinational firms are likely to offer 9.8%. Even tech product companies, known for their competitive salaries, are projected to give an average hike of 9.5%. Yet, all these figures pale in comparison to the Karnataka government's increment. <h2><keyword id="21315567" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="employee-retention" source="keywords">Employee retention</keyword></h2>As private companies grapple with attrition rates that have almost reached pre-pandemic levels, the Karnataka government's move could be seen as a strategic effort to attract and retain talent. Aon's study shows that attrition in 2023 was 18.7%, a decrease from over 21% in 2021 and 2022. By offering a significant pay hike, the Karnataka government is positioning itself as an attractive employer in a competitive <keyword id="19916569" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="job-market" source="keywords">job market</keyword>. <div type="Article" hostid="261" msid="111115782" title="Flexibility, salary key jobseeker parameters for new roles in India: Report" mstype="2" mssubtype="0"></div>However, even if you look at salary increments across Asia Pacific countries, India's expected average hike of 9.5% is significantly higher than its neighbours. Bangladesh follows at 7.3%, China at 5.7%, and Japan at a modest 3.6%. Karnataka's 27.5% hike, therefore, is not just a national highlight but an extraordinary figure in the broader regional context. In an era where private sector employees are often seen as the beneficiaries of generous pay hikes, Karnataka's state government has flipped the script. With this 27.5% salary hike, the allure of a government job in Karnataka has never been stronger.
