Indian economy to grow at 5.5% this financial year: Montek Ahluwalia

08 Aug 2013 Evaluate

Remaining optimistic on higher farm growth in view of a good monsoon spell, Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia expects Indian economy to grow at 5.5% this financial year, better than previous year’s decade low figure of 5%.

Ahluwalia said that “It will be a good year for agriculture but there is no evidence yet of significant turnaround in industry. I guess that somewhere better, good outcome for India will be that India will better than last year, better than 5 per cent, may be 5.5 per cent (this fiscal)”.

The government has initially projected a growth rate of 6.5% for the current fiscal, but had to lower the same in view of global and domestic factors. Not only this, RBI too in its first quarterly monetary policy review scaled down the growth projection for 2013-14 to 5.5% from 5.7% projected in the mid-quarter review held in May 2013, and urged the government to undertake policy measures to improve investment climate.

Meanwhile, Asian Development Bank, citing the slow progress of economic reforms, in the last month, has also lowered its growth projection for India to 5.8% in calendar 2013 from 6% estimated earlier. Another global agency, International Monetary Fund too expects India’s economy to grow at 5.6% this year.
