News Updates from India
India's growth to accelerate to 7.3% in FY19, says Fitch
http://www.ptinews.com/news/9713849__India-s-growth-to-accelerate-to-7-3--in-FY19--says-Fitch$storyes
India's economic growth will accelerate to 7.3 per cent in the current fiscal and 7.5 per cent in the next as money supply has
recovered to its pre-demonetisation level and disruptions related to the rollout of GST have diminished. Fitch, which last
month kept India's sovereign rating unchanged for the 12th year in a row, said the country's ratings "balance a strong medium-
term growth outlook and favourable external balances against a weak fiscal position and difficult business environment". But
the business environment is likely to improve gradually with the implementation and continued broadening of the
government's structural-reform agenda.
