Why did Asian Development Bank (ADB) first downgraded India's GDP Forecast to 6.7% and then upgraded it to 7% ? ADB downgrade could have been prompted by factors like slowing growth, fiscal deficits, or inflationary pressures, affecting India's economic prospects. Later ADB noted that Indian Economy grew remarkably in FY23, with strong momentum in manufacturing & services. Further growth in upcoming time will be driven by increase in consumption, which means inflation will continue its downward trend in tandem with global trends as per ADB. Also, exports are likely to be relatively muted in current FY due to slowing growth in major advanced economies, but may improve in FY24-25. Note: GDP forecasts are subject to revisions based on changing economic circumstances and evolving policy environments.
