India's Economic Growth Likely Slows to Around 7.1% in April-June Quarter
India's economic growth likely slowed to around 7.1-7.2% in the April-June quarter of 2026-27, marking a four-quarter low. This moderation is attributed to weaker services activity, subdued private investment, and a delayed monsoon, despite resilient consumer spending and government expenditure. Risks include rising crude oil prices and geopolitical tensions affecting costs and investment. Forecasts for Q1 GDP growth range between 6.2% and 8.0%, with official data expected on August 31.
