17-Oct-2025

India must fire on all cylinders with focus on domestic demand, reforms, investment, innovation, and trade integration, to sustain high growth and meet its long-term development goals, Krishna Srinivasan, IMF Director of the Asia and Pacific Department (APD), said Thursday. Answering a question from ET Online Editor Deepak Ajwani on India’s approach to tariffs and self-reliance, Srinivasan said, “If India has to grow at the rate at which you’re talking about in terms of being fixed by 2047, India has to fire all cylinders. Strengthen domestic demands, build internal integration within India… But also, there is an opportunity here for India to integrate itself in global supply chains.”
