OECD Pegs India's GDP Growth at 7.5%

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) has stated that it is expecting Indian economy to grow close to 7.5% in 2019 and 2020.

This expectation comes on the back of higher oil prices and rupee depreciation that will put pressure on demand and inflation.

As per the reports, India's GDP at market prices will grow 7.3% in 2019 and 7.4% in 2020 from 7.5% in 2018. It also said that the growth is likely be slow down in 2019 and 2020 mainly on account of tighter financial conditions, higher oil prices, adverse terms of trade and rising political uncertainties all over.

It said that monetary policy will need to be tightened as inflation expectations are trending up and there are several upside risks to inflation.

Besides, on the trade front, it noted that the hike in US tariffs on Chinese imports could benefit India's exports particularly in the textile sector.

Additionally, it has projected global GDP growth to slow from 3.7% in 2018 to 3.5% in 2019-2020.
