The International Monetary Fund (IMF) cut India's growth projections for this fiscal year to 7.3% and for the next to 7.5% on Monday, although the country will still retain its top spot in the global growth league. But "India's growth remains quite robust into the future; it is down but growing very strongly", said Maury Obstfeld, the director of the IMF's Research Department. The World Economic Outlook (WEO) Update reduced by 0.1% the projections made in April for this year and by 0.3% for 2019. At the news conference to release the report in Washington, Obstfeld explained the downgrade by saying that while the main factor is the rise in oil prices, "the general tightening in general global financial conditions is (also) playing a role in affecting India's growth". Gian Maria Milesi-Ferreti, the deputy director of the Research Department, added that another element that went into the downgrade was "the rising inflationary pressures". "Monetary policy has tightened; it's a bit tighter than under our forecast in April and that adds to oil and tighter global financial conditions in taking a little bit off growth for next year," he said.
