India’s economy has been exhibiting robust economic growth. Figures released by the government on Friday reveal that India’s GDP grew by 7.8% in January-March, reflecting healthy economic performance for the quarter. With this latest update, India’s economic growth in 2025-26 continues to be at 7.7%.

The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has released these numbers on Friday. According to the figures, India’s economy continued to grow by 7.7% during 2025-26, better than the growth estimate of 7.1% projected for the year 2024-25. This momentum clearly indicates that the country's economic activity remains robust, providing continued support to growth.

Based on government estimates, real GDP, or GDP at constant prices, is projected to reach ₹323.12 lakh crore in fiscal year 2025-26. This figure represents a significant increase from the first revised estimate (FRE) of ₹299.89 lakh crore for fiscal year 2024-25. This strength at constant prices indicates that the economy's infrastructure is expanding.

According to the latest data from the Ministry, the economy has also maintained its momentum on the nominal GDP (at current prices) front. Nominal GDP is projected to reach ₹346.36 lakh crore in FY 2025-26, compared to ₹318.07 lakh crore in FY 2024-25. This clearly underlines a strong growth rate of 8.9 percent. These GDP figures confirm that the Indian economy is moving strongly in the right direction. Strong quarterly growth of 7.8 percent and annual growth of 7.7 percent are not only a positive sign for Indian markets but also strengthen the country's steadily improving economic outlook.

Reacting to these impressive GDP figures, the country's Chief Economic Advisor (CEA), V. Anantha Nageswaran, stated that the new data presents a balanced picture among various components of the economy. Furthermore, referring to global challenges, he clarified that international crude oil prices remain a major question mark. However, despite these uncertainties, Indian exports have shown remarkable resilience in the month of April.
