India Growth Outlook At 6.5% Till 2027: Moody’s
Moody’s Ratings expects India’s economy to grow by an average of 6.5% per year through 2027. The agency cited strong infrastructure investment and steady household consumption as key drivers while pointing out that private-sector capital expenditure remains cautious.
Key Drivers And Risks
Moody’s highlighted that major infrastructure spending—such as transportation, energy and urban projects—along with resilient domestic demand are underpinning the growth forecast. Despite these positives, the agency cautioned that the private sector’s hesitancy to invest could restrain a stronger uptick in growth.
Implications For India’s Economy
The projection reinforces India’s position as one of the fastest-growing major economies globally. Policymakers may view this as validation for ongoing reform efforts but are also urged to address private-investment bottlenecks to sustain growth beyond this period. The outlook reflects both the potential and the challenges ahead for India’s economy.
