Moody's Raises India's FY27 GDP Growth Forecast to 7 Percent, Flags Inflation Risks
Moody's has raised India's GDP growth forecast for fiscal year 2026-27 to 7 percent from 6 percent, citing the economy's resilience amid global shocks such as the Middle East conflict. The upgrade surpasses projections by the IMF, S&P Global, and the Reserve Bank of India. Strong private consumption, investment, infrastructure spending, and services activity support growth. However, Moody's flagged risks including elevated energy prices, El Niño-related food price pressures, inflation, and fiscal challenges that could affect consumption and fiscal consolidation.
