India's budget surprises with lower-than-expected fiscal deficit target, deviating from expectations of a fiscal-centric approach, according to the chief economist of credit rating agency ICRA. The government aims to reduce fiscal deficit to 5.1% of GDP, lower than the expected 5.3%.

The Reserve Bank of India is expected to cut rates in August or October depending on monsoon conditions. Read The Rest at :
