India's GDP Growth Forecast Revised Upward Amid Inflation and Weather Risks
India's economy is projected to grow between 6.7 and 7.3 percent in fiscal year 2026-27, supported by resilient domestic demand, strong industrial activity, consumption, exports, and government investment. Multiple agencies, including the World Economic Forum, S&P Global Ratings, Fitch, DBS Bank, and the Asian Development Bank, have upgraded growth forecasts amid robust first-quarter performance. However, risks such as rising inflation, higher energy prices, tighter financial conditions, and below-normal monsoon rainfall may moderate growth in the second half. Inflationary pressures are expected to keep the Reserve Bank of India focused on price stability, with potential interest rate hikes anticipated.
