Amidst global uncertainties and a faltering global
economic growth prospect, the Indian economy
continues to display robust growth momentum, supported
by strong macroeconomic fundamentals. The Reserve Bank
of India has projected the real GDP growth at 6.5% for
2023-24 over and above the 7.2% growth it achieved last
year. The International Monetary Fund has projected India’s
GDP growth at 5.9% for 2023-24 while the World Bank has
projected it at 6.3%.
The UN report ‘The World Economic Situation and

supported by resilient domestic demand, according to the
report which suggested that higher interest rates and weaker
external demand will continue to weigh on investment and
exports this year for the country.
