Govt agrees with RBI’s raised growth estimates: DEA secretary Ajay Seth

Live Mint  

The government concurs with the Reserve Bank of India's decision to revise India’s FY24 economic-growth estimate to 7% as the country has achieved high growth during the first two quarters of the fiscal, Ajay Seth, secretary of the department of economic affairs, said on Friday. Speaking on the sidelines of FICCI's annual convention and annual general meeting, Seth said despite recording high growth in the first two quarters, the Indian economy still faces stickiness on inflation and supply-side measures will continue to be taken to keep food prices in check. The Indian economy surpassed expectations to clock impressive 7.6% growth in the September quarter, retaining its crown as the world’s fastest-growing major economy after clocking 7.8% growth during the June quarter. The International Monetary Fund has predicted that the Indian economy will outperform Indonesia’s, China’s, the US’s, Japan’s, France’s, the UK’s and Germany’s in the September quarter.
