India, over the past decade, has been observed as a cynosure among all economic growth stories; this is illustrated as an economic miracle. 9% growth rate had become a standard rather than an exception. Within a span of 20 years, India strived and transformed itself to be the 3th largest economy of globe (in terms of Purchasing Power Parity). At present, however, the forecasted growth position is severe since the rupee has rose till 13% in the past 3 months. Inflation, at 10%, is higher than any other country’s comparable economy size.
With several assumptions and viewpoints kept during the event related to causes of the rise that the economy has witnessed, CRUX and XLRI have endeavoured to create a national platform to talk about feasible strategies to deal with the multitude of challenges that India’s economy presently is facing.
