INDUSTRY OUTLOOK

 Until 2015, the commodity futures market was regulated by Forward Market Commission (FMC).In 2015, after the merger of FMC with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), SEBI became the regulator of the commodity futures market. Commodity Exchanges play a vital role in promoting growth, transparency, and efficiency of the commodity futures markets. This role is defined by their functions, infrastructure capabilities, trading procedures, settlement, and risk management practices.

FY 2020 was steeped with uncertainties for India’s commodity markets. A slackened growth of the economy, the US-China trade war, weak currency due to frequent monetary easing and downgrades by multiple agencies, and a firm dollar as compared to the rupee and the aggravated US-Iran war-like conditions, are some of the factors which have led to the commodity markets lackluster performance.

Recently, SEBI has taken various steps to boost the commodity derivative market. In a major decision to strengthen the commodity market, SEBI permitted mutual funds to participate in commodity futures along with PMS. It enabled mutual funds and portfolio managers to participate in the Agri and non-Agri commodity derivatives segments (CDS). Earlier, Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) were allowed to trade in commodities futures. Notablepoliciesinitiatives have been allowing commodity options, allowing foreign entities to hedge their exposure on commodities in Indian commodity exchanges, and allowing the introduction of commodity indices trade.

Other than the response to the Covid-19 pandemic, major factors to impact Indian commodity markets in the coming year include a resurrection in consumption demand, growth led by policy reforms, a move towards digitization, and the monetary stance of central banks of major economies, and the economic and trade policies. Coupled with strong demographic dividends and economic growth, consumer demand conditions in the country will remain strong for a long period. Additionally, a stable fiscal situation, moderate inflation rate, exports growth, and rising FDI inflow point towards fundamental stability in the economy, which augurs well for the markets
