Summary:
The latest national income data from the NSO shows a robust
8.4% year-on-year growth in real GDP for the October-
December quarter, exceeding economists' projections.
Revisions to previous years' data also affect the current
fiscal's estimates, with 2021-22 real GDP growth revised
upward to 9.7% while 2022-23 is scaled down to 7%. Despite
GDP growth, third-quarter GVA growth slowed to 6.5%,
reflecting challenges in productive sectors like agriculture.
The discrepancy between GDP and GVA growth is attributed
to a surge in net indirect taxes. Private consumption and
government expenditure show weak traction, with private
spending growing by 3.5% and government consumption
shrinking by 3.2%. Amidst political anticipation due to an
upcoming election, a balanced analysis of multiple statistical
indicators is crucial to understanding the true state of the
economy.
The tone of the passage is informative and analytical.
