New Delhi, 11/10: The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Tuesday cut its projection of India’s economic growth in 2022 to 6.8 per cent, as it joins other global agencies that have trimmed forecasts.
The IMF had in July projected a gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 7.4 per cent for India in the fiscal year that started in April 2022. Even that forecast was lower than 8.2 per cent projected in January this year.
India had grown at 8.7 per cent in 2021-22 fiscal (April 2021 to March 2022).
