GDP growth of major south asian countries this year

[ziaulislam]

well according to official data

Pakistan grew to 4.2% from last year of 4.1% and 3.7% from year before
India at 7.3% from 4.7% and 4.5% year before
Bangladesh grew at 6.5% from 5.6%
srilanka at 7.2 from 6.2%

Regional GDP growth is projected to rise from 5.7 percent in 2013, to 6.7 percent in 2015,

so an excellent growth from all south asian countries except Pakistan, surprisingly there is a much more change in GDP / year for all countries especially india that showed a remarkable change

 

[Kabira]

But Indian growth numbers are made up.

 

[Hyde]

Not to forget that Pakistan is fighting a war since last 15 years.

Rest of the South Asia is not as volatile as Pakistan. It has got security issues, power shortages, sectarian violence and so many other issues that has constrained Pakistan progressing towards the right direction

Pakistan's development budget is cut to fund and counter the ever threatening security issues so our potential for growth is likely to remain below par.

Indian Growth rate for this year was projected to be 5.7% by WB and IMF prior to the change in the method of GDP growth calculation in india.This is the reason for the big jump

Most importantly with the new method,the last year growth rate for india also increased to 6.9%

Hence Indian growth rate increased to 7.3% from 6.9% an year before,infact a marginal improvement over the Man mohansingh govt.

 

[Mr.Nair]

By 2017, India will overtake france to become 6th largest economy.

we have to learn respective independent figures. predictions goes up and down all the time, the final WB figures will most likely coincide with indian official figures
regardlessly, even a 5.7% change represent a 1% increase which is not marginal
0.3-0.5% is marginal as happened in Pakistan case

By 2017, India will overtake france to become 6th largest economy.

by 2025 india should be the world 3rd largest economy easily even with a average growth. however soon or later india will see saturation unless it address it basic problems of education and health infrastuture.

 

[Mr.Nair]

India grows 7.5 % in first 3 months of this year.

BD would have grown at 7% if not for the political disturbances.

Hopefully we should see 7% GDP growth for BD in this 2015-2016 fiscal year.

Our economy is performing with one hand tied behind its back thanks to the greedy AL.

Our economy is performing with one hand tied behind its back thanks to the greedy AL.

True but we must give some credit to Awami League.

When both the Padma bridge(2018) and Roopur(2021) nuclear power plant come online GDP growth of 8% a year sustained would be within BD's reach.
