Indian government has pushed the reforms process after policy stalemate during the past few quarters. If the government is able to cut its budget deficit, investment climate in India can improve and give further push to growth in the country. Higher inflation, high interest rates and rising commodity prices are major concerns for India.
Anirudh Dutta, Head of Research at CLSA has given positive view about investment climate in India considering the surprising move of UPA government to go ahead with reforms.
