A. Global Economic Outlook:
The global economy is expected to decelerate slightly in 2025, as the effects of monetary tightening continue to ripple through advanced economies. Global growth is projected at 3.0 percent in 2025, with a marginal improvement to 3.1 percent in 2026, reflecting a modest but steady recovery. Growth in emerging market and developing economies (EMDEs) is expected to be 3.7 percent in 2025, rising to 3.9 percent in 2026, while advanced economies are projected to grow at 1.4 percent in 2025, held back by lingering high interest rates and muted external demand.
Inflation is forecast to decline further, with global headline inflation expected to fall to 4.2 percent in 2025 and 3.6 percent in 2026. Core (underlying) inflation is projected to ease more gradually, as service sector price pressures persist. The decline in inflation has allowed some easing of financial conditions, although central banks remain cautious.
The resolution of earlier financial sector stress, along with easing supply chain disruptions and lower energy prices, has helped moderate downside risks. However, risks to the global outlook remain tilted to the downside. These include the possibility of renewed financial instability as markets adjust to higher-for-longer interest rates, ongoing geopolitical tensions especially the war in Ukraine and the potential for more frequent and intense climate-related disruptions. Chinas economic recovery may also face setbacks due to ongoing property sector issues and weak domestic demand, with global spillovers.
On the upside, faster-than-expected disinflation could allow monetary policy to ease sooner, while resilient domestic demand in key economies could support stronger growth. In this environment, the primary policy objective remains to achieve durable disinflation while safeguarding financial stability. Central banks should continue prioritizing price stability and reinforcing financial supervision and risk monitoring. In the event of market turbulence, prompt liquidity support should be provided while minimizing moral hazard. Governments are also encouraged to rebuild fiscal buffers, with fiscal adjustments focused on targeted support for the most vulnerable.
Structural reforms to improve supply-side capacity such as boosting labor productivity, infrastructure, and competitiveness would facilitate smoother fiscal consolidation and help align inflation with target levels.
For advanced economies, the growth slowdown remains marked. Following a growth rate of 2.7 percent in 2022, output grew by 1.6 percent in 2023 and is projected to stabilize at 1.4 percent in 2025, underscoring the ongoing impact of tight financial conditions. Approximately 90 percent of advanced economies are expected to experience slower growth in 2025 compared to pre-pandemic trends.
B. Overview of the Indian Economy:
The Indian economy is projected to continue with its growth trajectory, with an estimated growth of 6.50% in FY 2024-25, according to the second advance estimates released by the National Statistical Office (NSO), as compared to 9.20% economic growth in FY 2023-24. Indias economic growth reflects a steady and resilient performance in a dynamic global economic environment. The Indian economy continues to be driven by a revitalized manufacturing base and a thriving services sector, and supported by key reform-based policies of the government.
In spite of challenges like stagnant wages affecting domestic consumption, slowing global demand and climate disruptions, India maintains its status as the fastest growing economy, set to dominate the global economic landscape. With global growth expected to be around 2.70% in 2025 and 2026, Indias performance underscores its resilience and growing significance in shaping the worlds economic trajectory and establishing its role as a key driver of economic stability
As per International Monetary Funds (IMF) list of World GDP Rankings 2025, India is currently among the top five largest economies in the world, with a GDP of USD 3.89 trillion ( 332.50 Lakh Crores) at current prices, having grown at an impressive rate in FY 2023-24. Despite global uncertainties, the Indian economy demonstrated remarkable resilience in 2024, characterised by strong GDP growth, substantial foreign exchange reserves, and record levels of foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows. Additionally, it is currently the third-largest economy in the world in terms of GDP based on purchasing power parity (PPP) with a GDP size of USD 16.02 trillion ( 1,369.31 Lakh Crores), as per the data from IMF.
C. Indian Industry Outlook:
Global electricity demand rose by 4.30% in CY 2024 and is forecast to continue to grow at close to 4% out to CY 2027. Rising global electricity demand is primarily fueled by growing expansion of electrification, industrial production, growing electricity consumption by data centers and growth in electric vehicles. Over the next three years, global electricity consumption is forecast to rise by an unprecedented 3,500 TWh, at its fastest pace in years over the Calender Year (CY) 2025-27 period. While the electricity consumption of the advanced economies as a whole remained almost unchanged in CY 2024 compared with CY 2021, these economies are expected to account for 15% of global demand growth over the CY 2025-27 period. Most of the additional demand for electricity over the next few years is projected to come from the emerging economies, which is expected to make up 85% of this growth.
More than half of the global electricity demand in CY 2024 came from China. Overall electricity demand in CY 2024 grew 7%, similar to CY 2023. Supported by economic expansion and with the growing ownership of air conditioners, the South-East Asian countries, India and other emerging markets are recording strong demand growth. Electricity demand in China is forecast to increase by 6% on an average annually by 2027. Indias electricity demand is forecast to grow at an average 6.30% annually over the next three years till 2027, stronger than the 5% average growth rate of demand for electricity recorded during FY 2015 to FY 2024
Solar has been the primary driver of this growth, with capacity increasing more than thirtyfold since 2014. India is steadily progressing toward its target of 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030. Supportive government policies, declining generation costs, and favorable investment conditions continue to enhance the sectors attractiveness. With an estimated renewable energy potential of over 24,000 GW, India is well-positioned to exceed its long-term clean energy deployment goals.
As Indias energy demand is expected to reach approximately 15,820 TWh by 2040, renewable energy will play a central role in ensuring energy security, sustainability, and economic resilience in the decades ahead
