Digital Desk | United Nations, Oct 15 (IANS) Despite the energy shocks, India's growth projection has been raised because it has responded well to the challenges and its strong fundamentals, fiscal prudence, and lots of reserves, the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) official for the Asia region said on Thursday. Explaining the IMF raising India's growth projection from 6.5 per cent in April to 7 per cent in its latest report despite the energy shock from the Iran war, Krishna Srinivasan, director of the International Monetary Fund's Asia and Pacific Department, said, We've revised up growth because Q1 (first quarter) of this fiscal year came out much stronger than we had anticipated. India entered this (phase of energy shock) with very strong fundamentals; growth was strong, fiscal prudence was pretty much enshrined, he said. They had lots of reserves and so on. In that context, you know, they have responded well to the shock, he said at a news conference in Bangkok, where the IMF is holding its annual meeting. He was asked about the disconnect between growth and performance seen in the rupee being under pressure, the weakening investment inflows, and higher oil price risks, against the highest growth rate among major economies. The so-called disconnect is not really (a) disconnect because what happens to the exchange rate is a function of global interest rates, investor risk appetite, and oil prices, Srinivasan said. And India, being an oil importer, has been affected by the energy shock. But the exchange rate should not be viewed as a barometer of economic success or failure, given the multiplicity of shocks we have seen, he said. Exchange rate should be, you know, the first recourse in terms of allowing the exchange rate to meet as a buffer for to respond to shocks [and it] is very important, he added. Srinivasan supported the revision of the GDP methodology undertaken this year by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI), calling it a welcome development. There's always room for improvement, but let's recognise the good work done by MoSPI in proving GDP statistics, he said. These revisions to the methodology are entirely consistent with the advice we've been giving them, including from our statistics department, he said. So, I would just say that, in terms of GDP numbers, what they have done is consistent with good practices. They have revised the base, they rebased it, and they've used the PPI (Producer Price Index) and IIP (Index of Industrial Production) to revise the production side of GDP, and these are welcome developments, he said.

New Delhi: Former India assistant coach Abhishek Nayar has compared Shai Hopes dominance against India to Matthew Haydens impact during Australias tours of the country in the 2000s. He praised Hope for combining control, power and adaptability while leading the West Indies challenge across formats on the ongoing tour. Hope has scored heavily against India despite facing high pace and quality spin. His ability to shift gears without relying solely on either power-hitting or touch play has made him a difficult batter to contain. The last time I can think of someone dominating India in India was when the Australian team came in the 2000s, Matthew Hayden used to take our bowlers to the cleaners, and Shai Hope is doing something very similar. His batting has been phenomenal, not only for the runs he has got, but also for how he has got them. You cant call him a power player or a touch player. He has found the perfect balance, where he can use the pace, but when required, he can generate force and hit those big sixes, Nayar told JioStar. Nayar pointed out that Hope has not been restricted by the nature of the bowling attack. He has handled Mayank Yadavs pace while also negotiating the variations of Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel, preventing India from building sustained pressure. He has been challenged with pace, with Mayank Yadav bowling upwards of 145, and he has handled it beautifully. He has played the guile of Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel very well. He has basically taken the Indian bowling to the cleaners in every format on this tour of India. To get a century at a strike rate of 200 tells you what Shai Hope can do, keeping wickets, captaining the side, and still coming out again and again to win games for his team, that is very rare to see, he added. Hopes influence has extended beyond his batting numbers. He has carried the additional responsibilities of captaincy and wicketkeeping while continuing to produce decisive performances for the West Indies. He has been challenged with pace, with Mayank Yadav bowling upwards of 145, and he has handled it beautifully. He has played the guile of Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel very well. He has basically taken the Indian bowling to the cleaners in every format on this tour of India.

India to remain world's fastest-growing large economy for next 20-25 years: Piyush Goyal
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 15 (IANS) India will remain the fastest-growing large economy in the world for the next 20-25 years, Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal said on Thursday, asserting that the country is well-positioned to drive global growth and technological advancement in the coming decades.

Given our demographic dividend, young population and the large market that we have, we will actually be shaping how the future of the world pans out, he said. Goyal stressed that India's progress towards becoming a developed nation by 2047 would depend on the collective efforts of its citizens. He said there was a need to move away from a mindset that avoids challenges and instead embrace responsibility for nation-building. Theres a very large segment of people that is running away from the problems. They are not willing to accept that our destiny is in our own hands. We will have to contribute to make India a developed nation by 2047, he said. According to the minister, the ambition to achieve big goals has become a defining characteristic of modern India and is a key factor behind the country's rising global stature.
