Signs of growth rebound ahead: Economic review
Hindustan Times Bengaluru|December 27, 2024
India's GDP is expected to grow at 6.5% in 2024-25 despite a slowdown in investment growth due to reduced public expenditure, private sector caution, global uncertainties, and concerns over excess capacity and dumping, the Union finance ministry said in its November economic review released on Thursday.

NEW DELHI:

A 6.5% pace is closer to the lower end of the ministry's earlier 6.5-7% growth projection for FY25.

The ministry in its latest review projected a bright growth outlook for the fiscal third quarter, stating that while rural demand remained resilient, urban demand showed signs of rebounding in the first two months of the quarter (October and November).
