India could be $8 trillion economy over coming 15 years: Panagariya

19 Jul 2017 Evaluate

Expressing optimism over growth of Indian economy, NITI Aayog Vice Chairman Arvind Panagariya has said the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) could touch $8 trillion over the coming 15 years by maintaining 8 percent growth annually. With the current level of growth, he noted that living standards and amenities that are taken for granted by Western countries could become available to a very large part of the Indian population in the next 15 years.

Panagariya stated that today, India has left China behind in the race to the world's fastest growing economy and it grew in real dollars in the previous 15 years ending 2016-17 (at) about 9 percent. Adding further, he said that if one were to make a very conservative assumption that over the next 15 years, India would grow 8 percent, GDP would increase from 2.3 trillion dollars today to close to about $8 trillion, with an average income of over $5,000. He also clarified that at that level of income it is not simply that the country will be very close to ending mass poverty entirely but a large part of the population will be very prosperous.

He further said that currently, the Indian economy is experiencing much more stable growth and added that there are some of the legacy issues such as the non- performing assets of the banks and they are being tackled by the government. He added that inflation is down to below two percent and the government has systematically cut the fiscal deficits. Highlighting government’s various reforms initiatives such as the Goods and Services Tax (GST), Insolvency and Bankruptcy Act and the Aadhar Act, Panagariya said that the benefits of those reforms are just starting to show.
