The optimistic growth forecasts stem from a number of positives like the rebound of private
consumption given a boost to production activity, higher Capital Expenditure (Capex), near-
universal vaccination coverage enabling people to spend on contact-based services, such as
restaurants, hotels, shopping malls, and cinemas, as well as the return of migrant workers to cities
to work in construction sites leading to a signi?cant decline in housing market inventory, the
strengthening of the balance sheets of the Corporates, a well-capitalised public sector banks ready
to increase the credit supply and the credit growth to the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises
(MSME) sector to name the major ones.
