• Corporate tax cut to lower direct taxes by INR 1.45 lakh crore (Based on calculations, assumed impact of corporate tax cut on receipts may have been after taking into account the lower indirect taxes)
• Fiscal boost to GoI from RBI; More than anticipated surplus transfer (INR 0.5 lakh crore) to aid non tax revenue growth
• Net impact of 0.95 lakh crore on fiscal deficit (INR 8 lakh crore instead of 7.04) means fiscal deficit as % of GDP, it will be 3.8% for 2019-20

Global Crude Oil
• Basing on Saudi Aramco CEO statement on 17th Sep'19, a probable scenario was built resulting in disruption of around 35.4 million barrels in Sep'19 with production getting restored at Abqaiq field gradually which is explained clearly in the table attached above.
• In the probable scenario, considering the disruption impact of 12% for the entire Sep’19, Saudi’s crude production is expected to decline by 1.18 MBpd for Sep’19 resulting in Saudi Arabia’s crude oil production at 8.62 MBpd in Sep’19 significantly lower from levels of 9.81 MBpd in Aug’19.
• Moving ahead, we expect the production to be at higher than recent normal levels in OND’19 reducing its over compliance rates towards production cuts to mitigate the losses happened in Sep’19.

Saudi Arabia Crude Oil Production Trend (MBpd)
Saudi Agreed Production towards Production Cuts: 10.31 MBpd
• OPEC production declined sharply in H2'19 due to continuous over-compliance rates from Saudi Arabia towards production cuts coupled with its supplies getting disrupted in Sep'19 due to the drone attacks. Moreover, lower Iranian and Venezuelan production supported for sharp fall.
• Continuous rise in the US production at a higher pace offset the production losses from OPEC & its allies production cuts and Iran & Venezuela (due to the US sanctions).
Higher US shale oil supplies partially offset the losses from OPEC cuts 19

Despite OPEC supply disruptions, higher US production shall keep markets surplus in 2019
• Crude oil demand growth in 2019 at significantly lower levels compared to the last five-year and ten-year average levels weighed on crude oil prices in 2019.
• Meanwhile, OPEC and its allies production cuts of 1.20 MBpd resulted in a lower supply growth of 0.81 MBpd in 2019 capped the downside of crude oil prices.
• Higher forward cover shall cap the upside of crude oil prices in the next quarter.

2019 IEA Global Demand Growth Estimates (MBpd)
ICE Brent Crude Oil Price Outlook
ICE Brent futures have concluded minute wave (b) within minor wave (b) and currently unfolding minute wave c. This weakness will be complex in shape where each down-leg will be retraced more than 61.8% before resumption of weakness. Therefore prices are likely to stay below USD 68 and weaken gradually towards USD 56 in the coming 3 months.
Global Edible Oils And Oilseeds
Supply – Demand – Insight
• Advantage: SUNFLOWER AND PALM OIL – Part of China’s rapeseed demand will be diverted to
sunflower oil and to palm oil.
– China sunflower oil imports are projected to rise by 50% Y-o-Y - from 0.68 MMT to 1.02 MMT in 2019-20.
– Cheaper palm oil is likely to capture any potential demand space available due to lower canola oil imports.
• Advantage: SOYBEAN OIL AND MEAL – Compensating for lower crushing of imported beans,
China plans to import soybean oil directly from key exporters such as Argentina.
– Additional soybean oil import demand estimated at around 0.35 – 0.4 MMT.
– China last month also announced plan to imports protein meal from Argentina, FSU and other key exporters.
Ban On Canadian Canola Imports 96% China’s imported canola and 88% China’s imported canola oil
originated from Canada.
US Soybean Import Tariff Hiked Imports of US soybean by China in 2018-19 down 52% Y-o-Y, falling
prey to trade war and African Swine Fever.

• After India revised down the import duty for palm oil at beginning of 2019, RBD Olein imports surged significantly to capture a larger share of India’s total palm oil imports.
• Higher in-flow of imported Olein, PFAD and Stearin have hurt the local processors/refiners margins earlier this year.
• After the recent hike of import duty on PFAD and Stearin (from 0% to 7.5% ) and on RBD Olein from Malaysia (from 45% to 50%), refining margins for India’s local refiners is set to improve due to restrictions on palm oil products and derivatives, and thus is expected to boost CPO imports going forward.

• Steady palm oil domestic consumption at origins is mainly attributed to rising the biodiesel production due to higher blending mandate.
• Malaysia & Indonesia emphasise on the increasing the biodiesel mandate to reduce/control the fiscal deficit, trying to shift away from traditional crude petroleum imports.

• Palm oil combined production at Indonesia & Malaysia is rising steadily at average pace of 8% last 5 years.
• Indonesia production growth is stronger than Malaysia, as Indonesia has advantage of larger share of younger plantations than Malaysia.
• Export demand for palm oil from Indonesia and Malaysia is rising steadily at pace of 5% last 5 years.
• Exports in 2019 jumped 12% Y-o-Y due to sharp surge in Chinese demand.
• China imported 59% more palm oil during Jan’19 to Aug’19 than year ago.

• US soybean production is set to decline by 17% Y-o-Y in 2019-20, owing to unfavourable conditions beginning of 2019.
• Due to slower imports by China and healthy bean carryover stocks from previous year, US and Brazil are likely to divert more soybeans to domestic crushing in 2019-20.
– SOYBEAN OIL PRODUCTION FOR 2019-20 AT BIG-3 IS ESTIMATED AT 29 MMT – UP 5.4% FROM 27.5 MMT IN 2018-19.
• Despite healthy production, soy oil stocks at US and Brazil by end of 2019-20 MY are seen tighter than last year due to strong demand for biodiesel production.

• For 2019-20, Ukraine sunseed production is likely to decline on smaller acreage than last year and flat yields.
• Russia sunseed production is likely to jump 1.2 MMT on 10% increase in yields from last year.
• EU sunseed production is likely to be same as last year on stable yields.
• Domestic crush at “UKR + RUS + EU” is seen increasing 3% for two consecutive years (2018-19 and 2019-20) and resulting in a record high production of 14.82 MMT by 2019-20.
• With production outpacing the export demand, combined stocks of sun oil at “UKR + RUS + EU” is pegged at 0.9 MMT – 10% up from 0.82 MMT in 2018-19.

• Canada and EU canola seed production in 2019-20 is estimated to decline around 7-8%, owing to poor weather conditions last 1-2 years.
• Despite poor seed production, stable crushing is likely to allow global oil production to rise 1.1% Y-o-Y to 28.19 MMT.
• Steady consumption demand for canola oil and shifting trends in trade are expected to result in tighter stocks of canola oil at major origins.
• For 2019-20, global canola oil end stocks are projected at 3.14 MMT – down 11% vs 3.52 MMT of 2018-19.

• Bumper cottonseed crop is seen compensating the losses in soybean and other oilseeds to keep India total oilseed production (excluding Rice bran) for 2019-20 at 33.56 MMT vs 33.24 MMT last year.
• 2019-20 rice bran production is estimated at 7.5 MMT, down 0.2 MMT from 7.7 MMT last year.
• India total domestic oil production is estimated at 8.25 MMT vs last year’s 8.45 MMT.
• Lower production & stable demand is likely to create space for more imports of edible oils in 2019-20.
• India edible oil imports in 2019-20 estimated to rise to 16.7 MMT – up 7.1% Y-o-Y.
