India’s GDP growth to slip to 6.8% in FY27 on high oil price, El-Nino, weak rupee
Quick source take
India Ratings and Research projects that India's GDP growth will slow to 6.8 per cent in the current financial year, down from 7.6 per cent previously. According to the rating agency, this broad-based slowdown is attributed to higher fuel and food inflation driven by West Asia conflicts, a weak currency, and El-Nino impacts on agriculture. Chief Economist Devendra Pant notes that achieving fiscal deficit targets will remain challenging due to increased subsidies, while various domestic and geopolitical downside risks persist.
