Overview

  • The Indian economy enjoyed windfall gains through lower oil prices, the effect of which has largely been eroded.
  • Looking ahead, the economy is expected to gain traction as the impact of disruptive factors fades away.
  • A focus on supply-side reforms will likely yield better results than pursing aggressive policies to lift demand.
