With sustained growth of 8-9 per cent, Chief Economic Adviser V Anantha Nageswaran has expressed hope that India would become a $5 trillion economy by FY26 or the next year. He added that gross domestic product (GDP) in dollar terms has already crossed $3 trillion.
He noted that ‘Depending on how exchange rate move...Indian Rupee would remain stable to strong given what is going on the developed world. If we continue to retain the path of 8-9 per cent real GDP, it would translate into 8 per cent dollar GDP growth. If we extrapolate that we should be at the $5 trillion by 2025-26 or 2026-27’.
Meanwhile, Indian economy is estimated to grow at 9.2 per cent during the current fiscal while 8-8.5 per cent for the next financial year. Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2019 envisioned making India a $5 trillion economy and a global economic powerhouse by 2024-25. With this, India would become the third largest economy in the world.
