India's economy recorded a strong GDP growth rate of 7.8% in the fourth quarter (January–March) of FY26, outperforming projections made by the Reserve Bank of India and major market estimates. The growth was driven by robust investment activity, expansion in the services sector, improved agricultural output, and steady construction growth. This performance contributed to the upward revision of the full-year FY26 GDP growth estimate to 7.7%. Strong domestic demand, increased capital formation, and resilience against global economic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions helped sustain India's economic momentum during the quarter.
