ICRA predicts over 6.5% GDP growth for India in 2025-26
ICRA, a leading ratings agency, expects India's GDP to grow by over 6.5% in FY26, with real GVA also topping 6.3%.
This points to a solid outlook for the country's economy and steady gains in goods and services.
TL;DR
Key projections for FY26
ICRA sees inflation staying manageable, with consumer prices rising just above 4.2% and wholesale prices over 2.7%.
The government's spending on big projects is likely to jump by 10.1%, while rural demand should stay strong thanks to good harvests and healthy water levels.
However, private investment might slow down a bit due to uncertain export trends.
On the bright side, exports of services are expected to do better than merchandise exports this year.
