Economists said India’s revised GDP series lowers the size of the economy by about 3% and smoothens past growth trends without materially changing FY27 forecasts. Citi’s Samiran Chakraborty noted growth remains stable despite revisions, while Nomura’s Sonal Varma highlighted softer post-pandemic consumption and implications for debt ratios. MPC member Saugata Bhattacharya said higher economic slack alongside steady 7% growth suggests policy settings remain appropriate for now.
