The consumer sentiment in India has recovered in November, showed the Refinitiv-Ipsos Primary Consumer Sentiment Index (PCSI).
Consumer
confidence rose by 2.6 percentage points and shows recovery across the
four sub-indices, the barometers of consumer sentiment, said an Ipsos
statement.
The PCSI Employment Confidence Sub-Index has moved up
by 1.3 percentage points, the PCSI Economic Expectations Sub Index, is
up by 1.6 percentage points.
Further, the Current Personal
Financial Conditions Sub-Index has increased by 3.7 percentage points
and the PCSI Investment Climate Sub-Index has significantly moved up by
4.0 percentage points.
"November shows a boost in consumer
sentiment across metrics - there is uptick for personal finances,
investments in big ticket items and recovery in perception seen for jobs
and the economy," says Amit Adarkar, CEO, Ipsos India.
"Several
factors could be driving this optimism - festival spirit (which is
infusing positivity), consumer friendly loans for investment and
normalcy returning with businesses and employees returning to work. But
will this sustain for the long term? It remains to be seen, as the
pandemic is seeing a resurgence," he said.
