Financial Express Mumbai|March 20, 2024
THE COUNTRY'S GROSS domestic product (GDP) may grow at a rate closer to 8%, even higher than 7.6% seen by the National Statistical Office (NSO), according to a forecast model in the Reserve Bank of India's monthly bulletin for March.
GDP may grow 8% in FY24: RBI bulletin

The nowcast model sees GDP growth for Q4 in conjunction with high-frequency indicators.

In April-December, India's GDP grew at 8.2%, so to reach 8% in FY24, GDP in Q4 will have to expand by 7.2%. The NSO, however, has projected a much lower growth of 5.9% for the March quarter.

The Bulletin's paper, titled 'State of the Economy' said that real GDP expanded at a six-quarter high rate of 8.4% in Q3 FY24, powered by strong momentum, robust indirect taxes and lower subsidies. The real gross value added (GVA) growth in Q3 was just 6.5%.
