...............The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) which, for a very short period in the latter half of the 1990s, revealed the CAD-CR ratio, has quietly buried this figure in its mass of balance of payments data. The RBI should highlight the trends in the CAD-CR ratio in its forthcoming Annual Report. As Y.V. Reddy has perceptively commented recently, one cannot have a single CAD-GDP ratio which is appropriate over the cycle. If the CAD-GDP ratio is 5 per cent at a low point of growth how much higher would it be when growth gets back to a trend line of, say, 8 per cent?............
