India’s economic trajectory remains resilient, with the Asian Development Bank projecting GDP growth of 6.9% for the current fiscal year, rising further to 7.3% in the next. This optimism is underpinned by robust domestic demand, easing financial conditions, and favorable trade dynamics. However, the outlook is not without risks. Ongoing geopolitical tensions in West Asia, fluctuating oil prices, and potential disruptions to trade and remittances pose significant challenges. Inflation is expected to rise to 4.5% before stabilizing in subsequent years.
