Impact of new economic policy on balance of payments in India?
our country has allways been a trade deficit country. As a result of new economic policy the net invisibles share of the current account has been increasing steadily which results in comparitively a better current account deficit (i.e current account deficit is reduced considerably). Similarly the net balance of capital account has allways been surplus due to the net FDI inflows, FIIs etc.. the deficit in current account has been almost overcome by the surplus in capital account and which resulted in a steady accumulation of foreign exchange reserves. At present our F E reserves are at US$301 billions. It shows the impact of new economic policy on our country's balance of payments.

What is the relationship between capital account balance and current account balance?
The balance of payments, then, is the sum of the balance on current account and the balance on capital and financial account. It is important to understand that the deficit indicated by the current account is financed through activities recorded on the capital and financial account. The deficit on the current account must be exactly offset by the surplus on the capital and financial account (if it is not, net errors and omissions will correct it). This means then that the sum of the current account and the capital and financial account is equal to zero.

The capital account indicates the capital movements of that country with other countries. it also shows the countries gold and other reserves. a surplus and a deficit in the current accounts increases and decreases the reserve and so the balance of payments is equalised always. so when we say that BOP is deficit we mean only the current account in the BOP. because BOP will always be equalised.

A current account surplus signifies that the country is exporting more than importing or it is supplying more to the world than it takes from other countries.

On the other hand, a country running a persistent deficit in its current account is a net importer and paying more than it is producing, hence living beyond its means. Arun Goel
