    GDP Growth- IMFforecasted the growth in 2010-11 as 9.5%The Q1 industrial production numbers showed adequate growth of 11.6% compared to 3.9% in Q1 last year.Marginal increase in the growth in the six core infrastructure.Inflation has touched double digit which is a major concern.Introduction of base rate for transparency in lending rates.Country’s exports are more in value than the imports.Current Scenario
  • 47.
    To conclude, monetarypolicy is helpful in attaining growth with stability. However, there are challenges in maintaining the momentum. We need to make the growth meaningful to the millionsof poor and unemployed.Six most important challenges are agricultural growth, infrastructure development, fiscal consolidation, social infrastructure particularly primary education and basic health, managing globalisation and good governance.Concluding Observations
  • 48.
    The conduct ofmonetary policy will continue to provide support to these areas.Stability, especially price and financial stability; will undoubtedly facilitate accelerated growth.
  • 49.
    India, today, standsat a new threshold, with greater triumphs and achievements in sight.Never before in recorded history have so many people been in a position to rise and that so quickly. Jai Hind!
