Credit Rating Agency CRISIL has revised down its India growth forecast for the current fiscal to 7% from the 7.3% estimated previously. the credit rating agency said this is primarily because the slowdown in global growth has started impacting India’s exports and industrial activity.

CRISIL chief economist Dhrmakirti Joshi said in a note “We have revised down our forecast for real gross domestic product growth to 7% for fiscal 2023 from 7.3%, primarily because of the slowdown in global growth that has started to impact our exports and industrial activity. This will test the resilience of domestic demand,”.
