Indian Economic Growth
India has become one of the fastest growing economies in the world today. Everyone wants to know that if there is so much development, will this pace will remain even further? Will India become really the economic engine of the world in the coming times? If we look at the current economic indicators, then there is a great hope that India’s economic progress will not only continue but will be even stronger. Let’s take a look at them…
GST rate cut will provide big relief
Recently, the government has made a big change in GST rates, which will be applicable from 22 September 2025. The GST Council has decided to implement two main rates of 5% and 18% by eliminating rates of 12% and 28%. This means that tax on goods needs of common man will be reduced and the work of paying tax will also be easy. Luxury and harmful items will have a high rate of 40% so that unnecessary expenses are charged more taxes. It is believed that this step will not only reduce the burden on the pockets of the people but will also speed up business.
GST collection record gains
In August 2025, the GST collection figure was Rs 1.86 lakh crore, which is about 6.5% more than last year i.e. August 2024. However, if we compare the last month i.e. July 2025, then the GST collection in July was ₹ 1.96 lakh crore, which is more than August. In April, the GST collection reached the highest level of its entire history, when the government earned Rs 2.37 lakh crore.
BSE Sensex gains
The stock market is also a mirror of India’s growing economy, BSE Sensex has shown a rise of about 9.5% in the last 6 months. There can be many positive signs about the boom in the stock market. For example, from October to December quarter, the policy rate cut can be seen, which can benefit the stock market. On the other hand, the American Fed has also indicated two rate cuts in the months of November and December.
Decline in unemployment, new employment opportunities
The unemployment rate in India is also continuously decreasing. In August 2025, the total unemployment rate came to 5.1%, which is the lowest in the last five months. Especially in men, this rate has come down by 5%. 17 crore jobs have been created in India in the last decade. It is an indication that people are also getting work. Increasing employment opportunities strengthen the country’s economy and the life of the common man is better.
GDP growth increased hopes
India’s GDP growth has been 7.8% in the last quarter, which is the highest rate among the last five quarters. This rapid growth shows that the country’s economic activities are increasing rapidly. India is not only moving continuously in GDP growth, but its share in the world’s economy is also getting stronger.
