New Delhi, April 8: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has slightly revised its economic outlook for the financial year 2026–27 (FY27), raising both growth and inflation projections.
The central bank now expects India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to grow at 6.9 per cent, up from its earlier estimate of 6.7 per cent, indicating a modestly improved growth outlook.
At the same time, the RBI has also increased its inflation forecast for FY27 to 4.6 per cent, compared to the earlier projection of 4.2 per cent, signalling rising price pressures in the economy.
The revised estimates reflect a mixed outlook, where economic growth remains steady but inflation risks have increased due to global uncertainties, including higher energy prices and supply chain disruptions.
The updated projections were announced following the latest monetary policy review by the central bank.
