India maintains strong economic momentum supported by macroeconomic stability, domestic investment capacity, and financial sector strength, according to Michael Debabrata Patra, former Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of India. Patra told reporters on Friday at the fourth Kautilya Economic Conclave that the nation demonstrates low inflation rates, manageable debt levels, and substantial foreign exchange reserves positioned as the fourth largest globally. The country finances most investment through domestic savings rather than external sources, and banking sector net non-performing assets approach zero.

The former central bank official projected India will achieve growth exceeding 8 percent, noting first-quarter expansion reached 7.8 percent despite seasonal factors. Patra stated that goods and services tax reforms combined with export incentive programs reduce costs for exporters, while trade discussions with the United States may limit tariff effects given India's current trade surplus. He characterized India as a potential pole in an emerging multipolar global structure, with developing nations already viewing the country as a leader.
