India to be $2-trn economy by FY13-end? | Business Standard
India may turn into a $2-trillion economy by the end of this financial year,
provided the rupee remains below 50.79 against the dollar during this period. The government has projected
India's gross domestic product (GDP) for 2012-13 at Rs 101 lakh crore, against Rs 88 lakh crore in 2011-12—a growth of 14.7 per cent.
In 2011-12, when the rupee stood at an average of 47.95 against the dollar, the size of the economy was $1.84 trillion at current prices (including indirect taxes). A growth of 14.7 per cent would mean the economy would expand to $2.11 trillion.
