India's economic growth outlook remains stable, with GDP projections for the fiscal year 2024-25 expected to be within the 6-7% range, according to a recent report by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG). This stability is attributed to strong domestic consumption, government infrastructure investments, and a thriving services sector. Major institutions have shown confidence in India's economic resilience:
- FICCI: Maintained its GDP growth forecast at 6.4%.
- IMF: Kept its estimate unchanged at 6.5%.
- Nomura: Slightly lowered its projection to 6.0%.
Despite these positive indicators, challenges persist. Urban employment has seen a decline, while rural employment experienced a modest increase. Additionally, potential global trade disruptions pose risks to the economic recovery. Nonetheless, surges in GST collections and a record-high services trade surplus underscore the economy's resilience.
