In an impressive feat, India's economy soared with a 7.4% growth rate in the fourth quarter of FY25. This remarkable figure exceeded expectations, re-establishing India as the fastest-growing major economy globally. Experts credit this robust performance to strong domestic consumption and government investment, coupled with a lesser reliance on exports.
Signs of strength in the domestic market were evident, with key economic indicators showcasing resilience. Manoranjan Sharma of Infomeric Valuations noted that the economy's strong domestic demand, recovery in rural markets, and thriving industrial sector were pivotal in achieving this success. Anshuman Magazine of CBRE emphasized growth in construction and financial sectors bolstering real estate investments.
However, global challenges loom as potential hurdles for future growth. Ranen Banerjee from PwC India highlighted concerns over weak manufacturing output amid global trade disruptions. While Madhavi Arora of Emkay Global warned of potential challenges in FY26 due to global uncertainties affecting investment sentiment.
