The World Bank has marginally raised India’s growth projections for 2026-27 fiscal to 6.6% and said that although GST rate cuts would boost consumer demands in the initial months of the fiscal, headwinds arising from the West Asia conflict could dent growth.
The FY27 projection compares with estimates of 6.9% by the RBI, 6.1% by the OECD, and 6% by Moody’s Ratings.
