🌐 Steering India's Economy Amid Global Turmoil: A Strategic Imperative

In today’s fractured geopolitical landscape — from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, to Iran-Israel tensions, to escalating tariff wars — India stands at a critical crossroads.

An insightful piece by a FICCI expert lays out a roadmap for India’s economic resilience and opportunity in this volatile environment. Here's the essence:

🔍 1. Manage External Shocks

Leverage Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) to insulate our economy through strategic bilateral deals.

Diversify supply chains, as we did with Russian energy — reducing overdependence on single routes or regions.

🏗️ 2. Strengthen Domestic Economic Resilience

Double down on capital expenditure to boost employment and infrastructure.

Expand the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes to push India’s manufacturing towards export orientation.

📈 3. Align Fiscal & Monetary Policy

India’s current expansionary fiscal and monetary policy stance is timely — encouraging investment and cushioning against demand shocks.

🧭 4. Seize the Supply Chain Disruption Opportunity

With global supply routes disrupted, India must fill the vacuum — by chasing demand in disrupted sectors and becoming a credible alternative hub.

📊 The Bottom Line:

To not just survive but lead in this uncertain era, India must become a critical technology and manufacturing substitute — agile in trade, resilient at home, and forward-looking in policy.

🚀 The world is resetting. The question is — can India emerge as the trusted node in the new global network?
