    Indian Economy: News and Discussion

    They can ban chinku smartphones on the grounds that they are national security threats - there are enough precedents already (TikTok, Alibaba etc). There are legitimate concerns over these brands; even a WTO appeal would not work. Simultaneously, the GoI can invite/collaborate...

    Indian Economy: News and Discussion

    They should go after all those chinku smartphone brands doing business in India; quite literally a national security threat! But Elon has to come and set up shop in India eventually; his company has been conceding market share at a breakneck pace in cheeniland.

    Volumewise increase is there. But globally, prices have fallen (for refined petro products etc) - hence, the stagnation. Also, stuffs like electronics/solar are still at a very nascent stage (despite more than decent growth); will start contributing significantly in 4-5 years. And lastly...

    Yes. Falling exports despite increase in volumes. Electronics and solar still at a very nascent stage, will be making up a significant % some 5-6 years from now.

    USDINR shot up to 83.47. Won't be surprised if the next weekly release pegs fx reserves at US$ 650 billion+. Still don't see a meaningful depreciation of INR anytime soon but then again, who knows...

    Even the saner columnists have gone full retard; quoted article practically begs the readers to elect the clown prince, sugarcoats his tantrums and claims he is not all that bad. Pathetic! "A lot of what's happening right now is cyclical and situational." Yeah, my foot!

    My suggestion is based on Indian realities. Even the states are far too incompetent to focus on things that actually matter - the GoI has got their back; else, many of them would go the Sri Lanka way. Which begs the question - when even the state governments, who happen to have far more...

    City administrations need to be either abolished or bypassed. The union govt needs to take over with dedicated fiscal outlays and human resources (a la Swacch Bharat) and if possible, should go after the Panchayats and the Zilla Parishads next.

    Comparison is b/w FY 2022-23 vs FY 2023-24 (April-Jan). Only plastics seem to struggling a bit.

    Please provide that 'definition'. NB: Standards defined by some random NGOs, think tanks don't count. A typical household consuming some ~200 units per month is not poor; not by the Indian standards at least. I have written this exact thing time and time again on this thread and let me warn...

    We can argue all day over trivial details. My point is pretty simple..... If Vietnam (OP mentioned them specifically) truly enjoys such an enormous advantage over us across those primary/secondary education parameters then what exactly is stopping them from experiencing higher real GDP growth...

    Jindals have larger ambitions beyond a token JV with SAIC (if you know, you know) and BYD was promptly shown the door. Vinfast is not market-proven anywhere; Hero Electric, Okinawa etc were mercilessly screwed (for importing cheeni stuffs) while homegrown Ather thrived. You still have startups...

    Leave it; folks here don't understand how insanely difficult it is to make accurate statistically sound predictions in a nation as large and as diverse as India - there is simply no precedent anywhere else on the planet (barring a pseudo commie dictatorship).

    USDINR is not breaching 83 for the first time; happened as recently as a few months back. India's deficit numbers are gradually consolidating and if an NDA govt wins 2029 LS polls, chances are that USDINR won't ever breach 90. I don't foresee any significant depreciation - if a period of active...
