The World Economic Situation and Prospects as of mid-2023 released on Tuesday said India's economy, the largest in the South Asian region, is expected to expand by 5.8 per cent in 2023 and 6.7 per cent in 2024 (calendar year basis), supported by resilient domestic demand.
However, higher interest rates and weaker external demand will continue to weigh on investment and exports in 2023, it said.
Inflation in India is expected to decelerate to 5.5 per cent in 2023 as global commodity prices moderate and slower currency depreciation reduces imported inflation.
