India's medium-term fiscal consolidation likely to get more challenging, Fitch says

By Economic Times - 6 months ago
India's medium-term fiscal consolidation faces challenges with a new coalition government coming to power, potentially impacting a ratings upgrade, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi's BJP fell short of a majority. Fitch Ratings analyst Jeremy Zook expects the government to aim for a 4.5% fiscal deficit by 2025-26, but uncertainty looms beyond. The central bank's surplus transfer aids fiscal goals, but a coalition government may complicate consolidation efforts.
