The National Statistics Office (NSO) has released the First Advance Estimates (FAE) of national income for the financial year 2024-25.

Economic Growth Projections

  • The Indian economy is projected to grow at 6.4 per cent in 2024-25.
  • This is a decrease from the 8.2 per cent growth rate in 2023-24.
  • The new estimate is slightly below the Reserve Bank of India's projection of 6.6 per cent.
  • This growth rate is the lowest since the contraction during the Covid year (2020-21).

Nominal Growth Rate

  • In nominal terms, the economy is set to expand by 9.7 per cent, which is a slight increase from 9.6 per cent in the previous financial year.

The First Advance Estimates were anticipated after the observed growth rate in the second quarter of the financial year.
