Crisil Reports India's GDP Growth Slowing to 6.6%, RBI May Keep Policy Flexible
A Crisil report projects India's GDP growth to slow to 6.6% in the current fiscal year. Despite this, financial conditions improved in July, driven by a surge in foreign portfolio investor inflows to USD 4.2 billion, the highest since September 2024. Equity markets reversed a five-month outflow trend, and systemic liquidity surplus widened due to FPI inflows, FCNR(B) deposits, and easing currency circulation. Strong bank credit growth and softer bond yields also supported the economy. The Reserve Bank of India may maintain policy rate flexibility in response.
