As per the Economic Survey, inflation may decline to 6.2-6.6 per cent by March.

The survey pitched for a hike in price of diesel and LPG to cut subsidy burden.

The Economic Survey also called for curbing import of gold to contain current account deficit.

The annual report on challenges facing the economy was prepared by Raghuram Rajan, the former chief economist to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) who became the top adviser in the finance ministry last year.

On Monday there was a panel of economists on HT, Bibek Debroy, Arun Shourie, Bahrgava of Maruti and some other, I cannot recall now, the most optimistic growth tatrget from them was 5.5% with inflation between 6to 7%.

I would rather go with these gentleman than the figures touted by the GOI.

For the last three years our PM, FM (Pranab Da and PC both) and Montek Singh have said innumerable no of times that the inflation will fall in the next 3 months. We still have not seen it fall below the 5% comfort level of RBI till date. This same people were touting 6% growth for this year as late as December, and have conveniently forgotten about it.
