India’s Growth Is Roaring — It’s Time for Corporate India to Step Up

 Took me 3 hours to get from Noida to Gurgaon today.


Diwali traffic is wild this time and so are the markets.

Auto sales are up 34%, retail trade and e-commerce are seeing their best festive season in years, and gold silver buying is surging.

IMF has predicted 6.6% growth for 2025.

Yet CPI inflation is just 1.54% (September 2025). An eight-year low.

That’s developed-world inflation with emerging-world growth.

It shows how much stronger India’s supply chains, logistics and market structures have become.

But there is one problem that remains.

And no, it’s not the crumbling civic infrastructure in Gurgaon or Bangalore.

It’s the ₹13 lakh crore (≈ $150 billion) sitting idle in India Inc’s coffers.

Private capital formation has lagged for years.. meaning corporates aren’t investing enough.

The government has built infrastructure and reduced taxes; the people have responded with resilient consumption.

Now it's India Inc's turn.

Corporate India MUST channel this liquidity into capacity, innovation, and R&D.

With global tailwinds - political stability, favourable demographics, and growing geo-strategic strength - this is the moment.

Do that and we won’t just sustain growth. We’ll ignite it.

That grace period was up on Wednesday and Argentina defaulted for eighth time on Thursday, 31 st July 2014.

Union Budget 2015-16

A CHALLENGE The Finance Minister of India, Arun Jaitley is set to present the union finance budget 2015-16 on 28 th February 2015. The expectations from BJP’s first full fledged budget since coming to power last summer, are high on both sides i.e. the BJP and the country. The Modi-Shah election juggernaut was stopped this month by Kejriwal and it is being perceived as the end of BJP’s honeymoon period. Understandably, BJP would want a budget that could please one and all, a populist budget. It will help its Bihar and West Bengal campaign later this year and renew the energy of the party that doesn’t want to return to its ‘Ram Mandir politics’ after making ‘Development’ its tagline.
