But, based on what I'm seeing around, the fatter purse of Indian middle class, they're ready to spend and procure new items, which is helping the overall economy internally. Plus, we've also ramped up so much manufacturing in last few months.

GoI is running large deficits by reducing tax and also investjng in freebies + capital intensive infra projects. We can continue to sustain this to 2 years or so. Given geopolitical events i think its the right course for now. But india needs to move to a more diversified export oriented economy. I can see why rbi is not reducing rates. They fear a declining rupee (great for exports) will bring on inflation.

In fact India has been overly conservative on fiscal side. 3% of gdp is not needed for our stage of growth.
Vk1 Posted November 30, 2025 Posted November 30, 2025 Now that union govt is slowing down their spending on highways ( after bharatmala etc ) they should think of ways to improve the urban roads even though its a state subject. Roads in many cities are worse than Afrcian countries. If it is left to states we might become 10-15 trillion economy with 3rd grade roads.
Lone Wolf Posted November 30, 2025 Posted November 30, 2025 Really pathetic state of affairs, same is the case with DRDO and other public sector PSU's No wonder ISRO has dropped off a cliff. Ladli behnas have destroyed the social and economic fabric of the country.

Ladli behnas have destroyed the social and economic fabric of the country. Its not just isro The biggest issue with indian armed forces is that 70% of budget goes in salaries and pensions. This is much higher than most g20 countries. You have a chorus of "army families" crying hoarse if this is reduced. This means no room for purchases or any other investment. This why the likes of irso and drdo cannot attract the best. The world has moved on from infantry. India seems to be stuck in the 70s. Ladli behna is a drop in the ocean compared to this deep structural issue.
