UN Pegs India’s GDP Growth at 7.2%

A report by United Nations predicts that India’s economy is likely to expand by 7.2% in 2018 and go up further to 7.4% in the following year, on the back of strong private consumption, public investment and the ongoing structural reforms.

On India, the report has projected a positive outlook despite the slowdown early this year and the lingering effects of demonetisation.

Interestingly, many economists and global research firms alike have predicted India’s GDP growth on very similar lines. Global financial services conglomerate Goldman Sachs sees a bounce back in India’s GDP growth to 7.6% in the current financial year, and to 8% in FY19, a huge jump from a three-year low GDP growth a quarter ago. After upgrading India’s sovereign rating by a notch after a gap of almost 14 years, despite an economic slowdown in recent quarters and an expected rise in debt levels, Moody’s predicts a rebound in India’s growth to 7.5% in 2018-19.
