CEA Nageswaran Identifies 2026 as Economic Inflection Point Amid Global Challenges
Chief Economic Advisor V Anantha Nageswaran highlighted 2025-26 as a critical economic inflection point for India, comparable to 1991 but not involving a balance of payments crisis. He emphasized challenges from global shocks, supply chain disruptions, and structural constraints in manufacturing, energy, agriculture, and technology. Nageswaran called for building economic resilience through import substitution linked to export competitiveness and reducing dependence on vulnerable imports amid geopolitical tensions. He noted that recent shocks are increasingly deliberate, requiring strategic re-examination of India's growth trajectory.
