Tale of two halves: Goldman sees GDP powered by govt, private sector

Live Mint  

Investment bank and financial services major Goldman Sachs predicted a higher 6.5% growth in gross domestic product in FY25, compared to a more sedate 6.2% in FY24. In calendar year 2024, economic growth “is likely to be a tale of two halves", Goldman Sachs said in a report released on Monday, titled India 2024 Outlook. According to Goldman Sachs, risks around India’s growth outlook are evenly balanced with the main domestic risk emanating from political uncertainty with elections in May 2024. “We expect core inflation to only decline to 4.5% y-o-y in 2024 from an estimated 5.1% in 2023, given food and oil supply shocks and a steady growth outlook." The report, titled Asia-Pacific Portfolio Strategy, said Goldman Sachs expects corporate profits in India to grow 15% in CY24 and another 14% the year after, with growth appearing broad-based across sectors.
