Economic survey 2010-2011

The Indian economy this year (2010-11) has been characterized by robust economic growth and steady fiscal consolidation. Inflation continues to be high even though it has come down markedly from where it was at the start of the fiscal year. There are structural challenges that face, concerning economic governance, efficiency in delivery of subsidies and building up infrastructure. Policies formulated to take care of these can help moderate inflation, accelerate economic inclusion, boost investment and infrastructure, and enable agriculture, which has revived remarkably well this year, to be on a sustained high growth path.
