The Chief Economic Adviser warned that U.S. relations, soaring energy costs, and a lack of AI‑driven growth could weigh on India’s economic trajectory in the coming months.
The Chief Economic Adviser (CEA) released a brief outlining three near‑term headwinds that could affect India’s growth trajectory.
The first concern is the state of U.S. relations, which the CEA says may dampen trade and investment flows.
Rising energy prices are the second factor, putting pressure on household and industrial costs.
Finally, the lack of a robust artificial‑intelligence (AI) strategy is seen as a missed opportunity to boost productivity and innovation.
