Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman<\/a> on Tuesday said the strength of domestic demand and the resilience of its economy will continue to make India an engine of growth despite the fast-evolving global trade landscape in the wake of the imposition of additional tariffs by the US.<\/p>\n

India’s growth trajectory remains strong, underpinned by sound macroeconomic fundamentals and structural reforms implemented over the past decade.<\/p>\n

“Our government remains committed to continued reforms, maintaining macroeconomic stability, and ensuring that growth benefits every section of society,” she said.<\/p>\n

The minister delivered the inaugural address during a fireside chat on “Opportunities and Challenges for India’s Quest to Become a Developed Economy by 2047<\/a>“, at India House<\/a> in London.<\/p>\n

“The US is the leading trade partner for India. So, at a time when trade is going to be influenced by tariffs, measures which the US government is taking, we still will have to make sure that the strength that India has in domestic demand as a big magnet which can attract global supplies must be sustained and boosted,” she said.<\/p>\n

As India marches toward the goal of emerging as a developed country by 2047, “our approach must be inclusive, sustainable, and innovation-driven, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth”, she said.The statement comes at a time when the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on various countries have caused severe trade disruptions across the globe, raising fears of a slowdown in global growth.India remains the world’s fastest-growing major economy since FY22. It is likely to achieve its projected 6.3-6.8% economic growth in FY26 despite the global tariff war, against an estimated 6.5% in FY25, senior officials have said.<\/p>\n

“As we aspire to become a Viksit Bharat<\/a> by 2047-a developed nation by the centenary of our independence-the path ahead demands innovation, sustained investments, continued reforms and a firm commitment to inclusive growth,” she said.<\/p>\n

Sitharaman is on a visit to the UK and Austria from April 8 to 13 to attend ministerial level bilateral meetings in both the countries.<\/p>\n

The minister said India’s rise from being the tenth-largest economy to the fifth-largest in just five years is a testament to the Modi government’s prudent macroeconomic policies, reforms, and the resilience of our people.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
