India’s FY26 GDP Growth Forecasts Lowered Amid Global Concerns
Imagine India's economy is like a car.
Experts have slightly reduced how fast they think the car will go next year.
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) and India Ratings both believe the car won't speed up as much due to things like the US raising tariffs, which could make it harder to sell goods and also slower global growth.
India Ratings also thinks that investment might not grow as quickly as expected.
These changes mean the car might not reach its top speed as quickly as they initially thought.

ADB projects a 6.5% growth due to US tariffs and trade uncertainty.
India Ratings forecasts 6.3% growth, citing global uncertainties.
