India is scheduled to announce its Q1FY27 GDP in a few hours from now (August 31). Most economists see the economy projecting resilient trends and expect India’s real GDP growth to accelerate to around 7% in the first quarter of FY27. “We estimate Q1FY27 real GDP growth at 7% with an upside of 0.2%,” Bank of Baroda said. The economist expects manufacturing, construction and services activity to remain supportive despite global uncertainties. The Bank of Baroda estimate is similar to the Reserve Bank of India estimate.
