India, propelled by substantive reforms, is poised to emerge as the world's third-largest economy, achieving a staggering USD 5 trillion GDP in the next three years. The Finance Ministry projects a subsequent leap to USD 7 trillion by 2030, showcasing a remarkable transformation from the 10th largest economy a decade ago with a USD 1.9 trillion GDP to currently holding the 5th position at USD 3.7 trillion, overcoming challenges like the pandemic and economic imbalances.

This ten-year trajectory, marked by pivotal reforms, underscores the nation's economic resilience. The government envisions attaining developed country status by 2047, emphasizing the imperative role of state governments in purposeful and fruitful reforms.

While the government aspires to reach the USD 7 trillion milestone by 2030, the Finance Ministry's review accentuates the strength of domestic demand, contributing to a consistent 7% plus growth rate. The report anticipates that real GDP growth in FY25 will likely approach 7%, with considerable potential for the rate to surpass 7% by 2030.

Underlining the significance of the financial sector and structural reforms, the report expresses concerns primarily about geopolitical risks. The Chief Economic Adviser acknowledges unprecedented infrastructure development and increased public sector capital investment. However, amidst global economic challenges in the post-COVID recovery, the journey towards a USD 7 trillion economy is deemed feasible.
