India Inc has said Indian economy possesses strong fundamentals and will revive on account of various reform measures taken by the government. This comes in the backdrop of Moody’s Investors Service changing the outlook on India's rating to 'negative' from 'stable', saying the government has been partly ineffective in addressing economic weakness, leading to rising risks that the growth will remain lower.
Assocham President B K Goenka has stated that with its strong fundamentals, India is managing the effects of global slowdown with resolute measures in a host of sectors, besides taking up structural reforms in taxation, banking, finance, and thus change in India's ratings by Moody's Investor Service to 'negative' from 'stable' is incomplete in its assessment. He also said ‘we in India Inc., fully share Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's optimistic outlook about the Indian economy, with inflation staying low and the current account situation remaining quite strong.'
Besides, D K Aggarwal, president of the PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said that the economy is set to recover strongly in 2020 with a growth rate of over 7 percent. He believed that the government has undertaken various reform measures in the recent times to revive the economy which are expected to give fruitful results, going forward. He added that significant cut in corporate tax for domestic firms will accelerate the investments in manufacturing, open up new employment opportunities and kick-start economic growth trajectory of the country.
