With pick-up in demand and manufacturing, union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman has said that she expects India to become one of the fastest-growing economies by FY22. However, she expects a near-zero percent growth in the third and fourth quarters of FY21 with steady and sustainable growth.
She highlighted that the government’s top priority is to generate employment and asset creation by way of big infrastructure push and public spending. With a surge in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) by 13 percent during April-August this year compared to the same period last year, the government expects to fund the big infrastructure projects through public spending as part of top priority for employment and asset creation.
She also highlighted that India has near 100 percent FDI allowed via automatic route for 95 percent of the sectors, lowest corporate tax for manufacturing at 15 percent, and has also simplified labour and agriculture laws to attract investments.
