Amid global economic uncertainty, India continues to position itself as a resilient and dependable partner for governments, businesses, and individuals. India’s economy is expected to expand by 6.2% in 2025 and 6.3% in 2026, outpacing many of its global counterparts. In contrast, the IMF projects global economic growth to be much lower, at 2.8% in 2025 and 3% in 2026, highlighting India's exceptional outperformance. By 2028, the country is expected to become the world’s third-largest economy, with a nominal GDP exceeding USD 5 trillion.
India’s sustained reform efforts and strategic initiatives over the past decade have created an attractive environment for global investors seeking diversified supply chains and greater access to the Asian market. The Union Budget 2025–26 outlines Agriculture, MSMEs, and Investment as key drivers toward achieving the vision of Viksit Bharat, a developed and inclusive India.
India’s global merchandise trade reached USD 1.12 trillion in 2023–24, with exports at USD 437 billion and imports at USD 678 billion. At the same time, the country has emerged as one of the world’s largest consumer markets, with household expenditure touching USD 2.14 trillion in 2023. This dual role as a manufacturing hub and a consumer base strengthens India’s place in global value chains.
" India has a stable and highly progressive Leadership and that is the country's biggest asset. It is going to help us sustainable economic development. This is where we are preparing for vision 2047: Viksit Bharath. By 2047, India will be world's largest economy, that is going to happen.
