The government has revised the economic growth rate for the year 2021-22 from 8.7 percent to 9.1 percent. Figures related to this have been released by the government.

He also said that there are enough indications that the manufacturing sector is in good shape.

 

Nageswaran told reporters, "With inflation softening and the WPI recovery taking its course, we need to be prepared with both supply-side and monetary policy measures during the next fiscal due to El Nino activity." Is required." He said the GDP growth forecast for the next fiscal at 6.5 percent is within the range of estimates by the OECD and other agencies like ADB, but downside risks remain.
