India's GDP grows at 8.2 per cent in 2018-19 Q1

[bafxet]

India's economy grew at an impressive 8.2 per cent in the first quarter of 2018-19 financial year ending June 30 on the back of a strong core performance and a healthy base .

This jump ahead of national elections next year would help bolster the government amid a debate over its economic record versus that of its predecessor following the release of back-series data recently. This will also be factored in by the monetary policy committee at its next review scheduled for October 3-5.

As always, one should ask "8.2 percent of what? What is the size of the base?"

Such growth rates makes less sense until the benefit reaches the poorest of poor .....

What are the main drivers of this impressive growth...the harbingers of real growth.

Its mostly due to the lower base effect. Last year in Q1 India grew by only 5.7% due to demonitisation and implementation of GST. It has been growing ever since.

Rural India has started showing growth rates better than the Urban in many arenas.

I am not agree with him with all his policies but as of now he is only option India have .... Western part of India is growing rapidly then the eastern flank of country ...once the eastern part start progressing , the benefits of growth will reach the poorest of poor .... and after GST the growth rate was bound to increase and after demonetization they have doubled the number of tax payers .... but the bottom line is the day the people of districts like Kalahandi get a decent life , the defenition of growth completes ....
