CPI inflation is pegged at 4.9 per cent for Q1FY25, 4.4 per cent for Q2FY25, 4.7 per cent for Q3FY25, and 4.3 per cent for Q4FY25.
For FY25, GDP growth has been projected at 7.2%. However, the forecast for the first quarter has been revised to 7.1 per cent from the earlier projection of 7.3 per cent.
