INDIA HAS DISPLAYED exceptional economic stability in a year riddled with volatile commodity shocks and high global food prices. The government, along with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), deserve plaudits for swift and proactive management of inflation.
However, what gives strength to India’s economic ambitions is its consistent contribution to the global economy, especially in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic. The country is currently the world’s second-largest manufacturer of a range of products, such as mobile phones, steel, cement, pharmaceuticals, and many more.
