India’s economic growth is likely to pick up in the October-March period as consumer demand is expected to improve, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said on Thursday.
India’s economic growth in April-June fell to a six-year low of 5%.
Ms. Sitharaman added that the private sector banks had assured her that there was no liquidity crunch and there was strong demand in rural areas.
Addressing the media following a meeting with the heads of the private sector banks, non-banking financial institutions and microfinance institutions, Ms. Sitharaman said many private banks had also agreed to take part in the government’s outreach effort to increase credit offtake in rural India.
