India’s economy to grow by 5.7% in FY20: UN Report

17 Jan 2020 Evaluate

The United Nations (UN) in its World Economic Situation and Prospects (WESP) 2020 reprot has projected that India’s economy to grow by 5.7% in the current fiscal year (FY20) and expects it to rise to 6.6% in the next. The UN growth estimate for the current fiscal is drastically lower than the forecast of 7.6% made in last year’s report in January and 7% in the May update. The report said although there has been a steep decline in growth, India was still one of the high performers globally.

The report said it was expected to improve its growth rate in the coming year because of the steps being taken. According to the report, only China has a higher growth rate than India among the world’s large economies with a 6% forecast for the current calendar year. It presented a dire picture of the global economy last year when the world’s gross product growth rate dropped to 2.3%, the lowest in a decade.

In India, it said, the government has responded to those issues by announcing some stimulus steps, which we do expect to improve economic growth in 2020 going forward. However, fiscal stimulus in itself will not be enough. It mentioned two areas where India could do better: Labour and green energy. The labour markets are not performing optimally with high levels of informality (and) gender barriers that effectively limit the participation of women. In addition a high number of youth are neither working nor undergoing training. This is something the government will have address, to both improve long-term economic growth and to reach (the UN’s) sustainable development goals.
