Moody's Raises India's FY27 GDP Growth Forecast to 7 Percent Amid Economic Resilience
Moody's has raised India's GDP growth forecast for fiscal year 2026-27 to 7%, up from 6%, surpassing projections by the IMF, S&P Global, and the Reserve Bank of India. This revision reflects strong domestic economic activity, including a 7.8% growth in the April-June quarter, driven by investment and manufacturing. Moody's noted risks from elevated energy prices, El Niño-related food inflation, and potential fiscal pressures due to subsidy and defence spending amid the West Asia conflict, while highlighting India's economic resilience.
