  • According to RBI, the income of Indian families is continuously decreasing and the number of borrowers is increasing.
  • Due to falling income, it is becoming difficult to repay the loan, as a result, gold loans increased by 56 per cent in the first 7 months of the current financial year, but gold loan default increased by 30 per cent.

  • Private consumption has fallen for the last eight quarters and household savings are at a 50-year low.
  • Jobs have been declining continuously since demonetisation and this trend is continuing.
  • The burden of indirect taxes on middle and lower-income groups has increased inflation, due to which common people are not able to support their families.
