India sees 8% growth amid global uncertainties, says RBI Governor
India has shown impressive growth, with over 8% projections last year, despite global uncertainties, said RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra at the IMF’s annual meeting. He noted that India’s economy is largely driven by domestic factors, and while tariffs have an impact, they are not a major concern. Malhotra highlighted India’s strong economic recovery post-COVID and despite the Russia-Ukraine war, with inflation dropping from 8% to 1.5%. He also mentioned India’s manageable fiscal deficit and low debt levels. Despite global currency depreciation, the Indian rupee has remained relatively stable, thanks to effective fiscal policies and strong capital markets.
