Launching of 28th Round of Quarterly Services and Infrastructure

Outlook Survey (SIOS)-Q4:2020-21

The Reserve Bank has launched the 28throundof the quarterly Services and Infrastructure Outlook Survey (SIOS) for the reference period January- March 2021. The survey assesses the business situation for the current quarter (Q4:2020-21) from selected companies in the services and infrastructure sectors in India and their expectations for the ensuing quarter (Q1:2021-22) based on qualitative responses on a set of indicators pertaining to demand conditions, financial conditions, employment conditions and the price situation.

Owing to continued uncertainty because of the Covid-19 pandemic, an additional block has been included in this survey round for assessing the outlook on key parameters for the two subsequent quarters (Q2:2021-22 and Q3:2021- 22).

2. M/s Genesis Management & Market Research Pvt. Ltd. has been authorised to conduct the survey for January-March 2021 quarter on behalf of the Reserve Bank.
