The Finance Minister said that it took 75 years to reach a per capita income of $2,730 but the next jump is expected to happen very rapidly amid robust investments, strong fundamentals, and continuity in policy reforms.

Addressing the Kautilya Economic Conclave, conceived by the Ministry of Finance and organized by the Institute of Economic Growth (IEG), in the national capital, FM Sitharaman said another advantage that the country has is its demographic dividend as nearly 43 percent of the population is under 24 years old, which is a key driver for organic consumption growth.

She said that we are much better off than many other countries, even if they are advanced in economics. 

“Today, they are struggling to grow.  We are standing out as an economy that is growing at the fastest rate in the last few years, this year, and the next few years also, for which we can make predictions.  said the Finance Minister. 

“India finds itself amid the global geopolitical repositioning effort which has been going on.  This repositioning can act as a structural force to India’s advantage by creating robust supply chains with countries with strategic congruence, she added. 

India is projected to become a $30 trillion economy by 2047 with a per capita income of $18,000 per annum, according to a key NITI Aayog document.

The country is on its way to becoming the third largest economy soon and has the potential to add $1 trillion to its GDP every 1.5 years to reach the $10 trillion economy mark by 2032, driven by strong GDP growth and robust manufacturing, and emphasis on building infrastructure. 

The country has moved from “Fragile Five” under the UPA government to “Top Five” under the BJP-led NDA government.  The country is now being hailed as the merging superpower of the 21st century. 

As per a Goldman Sachs report, India is poised to remain among the world’s fastest-growing economies until 2030.  Meanwhile, the Indian economy is projected to grow faster at 7.1 percent this fiscal (FY25), Moody’s Analytics has said.  (Maxim News)
