Resumen
Descripción
The pandemic has afflicted India at a
time when its economy had already been decelerating. Defying
a long-term accelerating path, real GDP growth moderated
from 7.0 percent in 2017-18 to 6.1 percent in 2018-19 and
4.2 percent in 2019-20. The pre-COVID-19 growth deceleration
was perceived to be due to long-standing structural
rigidities in key input markets; continuing balance sheet
stress in the banking and corporate sector, which were
compounded more recently by stress in the non-banking
segment of the financial sector; increased risk aversion
among banks and corporates; a decline in rural demand; and a
subdued global economy.
