From growth, inflation to urbanisation: Economic Survey in five charts

Economic Survey in charts

India's economy is expected to log a 7 percent growth for a sixth consecutive year, according to the Economic Survey released on January 29. The survey pegged growth for the coming year between 6.8 and 7.2 percent, highlighting that while there was need for caution it did not need to give way to pessimism.

The government should not move to provide quick fixes to short term pressures but choose to build resilience and provide impetus to innovation to stay the course towards Viksit Bharat, it noted. On the inflation front as well, the Survey noted that it was expected to be benign even if it rises to target levels.
