In addition to the 3.5 per cent growth in agriculture, most of the sectors have seen losses. In fact, construction growth saw a steep decline of -51.4 per cent, manufacturing growth by -39.3 per cent, mining sector growth by -41.3 per cent and trade, hotels, transport growth by -47.4 per cent. This kind of a decline has been seen not only in India but also in many other developed countries. Only China saw an increase of 3.2.
Improvements may occur in 2022
A few months ‘ lockdown has made a huge impact on the Indian economy. Earlier, the 1980s saw a decline of 5.2 per cent. The decline in the Indian economy this year is really shocking. But India ratings say gdp growth rate will be 9.9 per cent in FY22. Well, the estimated figures cannot say anything special, but it is clear that the Indian economy will see a great improvement by the year 2022. One of the major reasons for this reform will be the Prime Minister’s ‘ self-reliant ‘ campaign.
