JP Morgan Expert Highlights Improvements and Challenges in India's GDP Calculation
Jahangir Aziz, Co-head of Macroeconomic Research at JP Morgan, states that India's GDP calculation methodology has become more robust and aligns with practices used by major economies. He highlights improvements such as the switch to double deflators and the Producer Price Index, which provide a more accurate growth picture. However, Aziz notes concerns remain about the distribution of GDP components like consumption and investment, citing the lack of a retail sales survey and potential underestimation of real investment growth.
