Ratings agency Moody\u2019s shares the optimism, noting that even sustained tensions with Pakistan will have <strong>no material impact<\/strong> on India\u2019s economic trajectory.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cIndia will remain the fastest-growing major economy in the world,\u201d<\/em> says the UN forecast.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This bullish projection comes against a backdrop of global headwinds \u2014 the Russia-Ukraine war, the bloody Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza, persistently high interest rates, China\u2019s slowdown, and Taiwan Strait tensions. While the world economy is expected to expand by just <strong>2.8 per cent<\/strong>, India continues to outperform, leaving even seasoned analysts surprised.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Demand at Home, Stability in Policy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>With <strong>1.4 billion people<\/strong>, India is the largest consumer market in the world. Over <strong>60 per cent of its GDP<\/strong> is driven by domestic demand, insulating it from sharp export slowdowns.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past decade, central government schemes have pulled millions out of poverty. Rapid urbanisation has blurred rural-urban divides, while a rising middle class with increasing purchasing power has powered consumption, boosting production and investment.<\/p>\n<p>Massive public spending on <strong>infrastructure, roads, power, railways, and ports<\/strong> has catalysed private investment. Consistent policymaking \u2014 from GST to Direct Benefit Transfer \u2014 has improved tax collection and cut leakages. Public sector banks have been strengthened, NPAs reduced, and the fiscal deficit kept on a disciplined path.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cPolicy continuity is proving to be one of India\u2019s strongest economic assets,\u201d<\/em> notes Moody\u2019s.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3><strong>The Startup Revolution<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>India\u2019s transformation into a startup hub has altered its global image. Once synonymous with poverty and unemployment, the country now boasts <strong>over 100,000 startups<\/strong>, including <strong>130+ unicorns<\/strong> valued at over $1 billion each.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023-24 alone, startups raised <strong>$40 billion<\/strong> and generated employment for more than <strong>10 lakh young people<\/strong>. India leads in fintech and e-commerce innovation. UPI, the world\u2019s most advanced payment system, processed <strong>150 billion transactions<\/strong> in 2024, with digital payments penetrating deep into rural India.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Foreign Investment Flows In<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Since 2000, India has attracted nearly <strong>$1 trillion<\/strong> in foreign direct investment (FDI), with <strong>$71.2 billion<\/strong> coming in 2023-24. Manufacturing saw a <strong>69% jump<\/strong> in FDI last year, with seven sectors \u2014 textiles, food processing, pharma, electronics, auto parts, chemicals, and capital goods \u2014 earmarked as priorities.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cGlobal investors increasingly see India as the democratic alternative to China,\u201d<\/em> says Deloitte.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Apple, Google, and Microsoft have expanded their presence, and India has emerged as a focal point of the \u201cChina+1\u201d strategy.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Resilience in a Volatile World<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Moody\u2019s notes that India\u2019s minimal trade with Pakistan shields it from geopolitical shocks. Foreign exchange reserves exceed <strong>$688 billion<\/strong>, providing a strong buffer. Oil imports are diversified, with Russia now a major supplier and transactions increasingly settled in rupees, lowering costs and stabilising domestic fuel prices.<\/p>\n<p>India is also investing heavily in <strong>green energy<\/strong> for long-term stability. Trade friction between the US and China has opened doors in IT, pharmaceuticals, and semiconductors. Inflation remains within RBI\u2019s comfort zone, and unemployment is under control.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Bigger Picture<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>India\u2019s growth model \u2014 turning population into productive capacity, demand into development, and governance into growth management \u2014 has made it a standout in a troubled global economy.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cWhile Pakistan knocks on the IMF\u2019s door, India sits at the advisory table,\u201d<\/em> writes Sanjeev Oak.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As China\u2019s economy slows, India\u2019s steady domestic demand and policy consistency are positioning it not just as a growth outlier, but as a central pillar of global economic realignment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Sanjeev Oak Amid widespread global uncertainty and volatility, India\u2019s economy is set to grow at 6.3 per cent, according to a United Nations report.
