The Indian economy grew 6.5% in fiscal year 2024-25 and 7.4% in the quarter ending March, according to data released by the National Statistical Office (NSO).
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) also projects that India will overtake Japan in economic size by the end of the year, reaching $4.18 trillion.
Key Findings:
The gross value added (GVA): grew 6.8% in the first three months of 2025, compared to a revised expansion of 6.5% in the previous quarter.
GVA strips out indirect taxes and government subsidy payouts, which tend to be volatile.
Private consumption: rose by 7.2% year-on-year, up from 5.6% in the previous fiscal.
Agriculture grew 4.6% (vs. 2.7% last year).
Construction grew 9.4% (vs. 10.4%).
Manufacturing slowed to 4.5% (from 12.3%).
