RBI Deputy Governor Says India's GDP Growth Impacted by External Shocks, Remains Resilient
Reserve Bank of India Deputy Governor Poonam Gupta stated that India's real GDP growth would have exceeded 8% if not for external shocks over the past three years, including high oil prices, deficient rainfall, and global uncertainties. Despite these challenges, India has maintained over 7% growth, supported by a diversified economy and strong policy measures. Gupta highlighted that improved global conditions could add up to 1 percentage point to growth, with food security remaining stable amid El Nino effects. Economic indicators suggest continued momentum into the second quarter of the fiscal year.
