India’s GDP Gained Momentum: Economy Grew 6.2 percent in Q3FY25

India's economy shows promising growth, registering a 6.2 percent increase in the October-December quarter (Q3FY25), up from 5.6 percent in the previous quarter (July-September). This aligns with economists' projections of 6.2-6.3 percent growth, driven by increased government spending and improved urban consumption.

Key statistics include:

Q3FY25 GDP growth: 6.2 percent (up from 5.6 percent)
Q3FY24 growth: 9.5 percent
Revised 2023-24 GDP growth: 9.2 percent (previously estimated at 8.2 percent)
2024-25 GDP growth estimate: 6.5 percent (up from an initial 6.4 percent)

The National Statistical Office (NSO) released this data on February 28. 

Growth drivers include:

Increased government spending on infrastructure and projects.
Enhanced urban consumption reflecting higher purchasing power.
Strong performance from the service sector, a major GDP contributor.

Looking ahead, experts are optimistic about the gradual strengthening of India’s economy. Despite lower growth compared to last year, the outlook remains positive amidst global slowdowns and inflation. If government policies continue effectively and global conditions stabilize, rapid growth is attainable.
