India’s economy kicked off FY 2025–26 with a bang—the April–June quarter delivered a 7.8% GDP growth, well above expectations. Services led the charge (+9.3%), followed by strong gains in manufacturing (+7.7%) and construction (+7.6%). Smart government capital outlays (up ~52%) and steady rural demand played key roles.
Despite looming U.S. tariffs, the RBI remains confident with a 6.5% full-year growth forecast, and global institutions like Fitch, IMF, and UN continue to rate India among the fastest-growing major economies. Momentum is real and growing.
