India’s GDP will remain strong just like this year, said the World Bank after seeing the growth in the South Asian region. The South Asian countries are at a good developing state, especially India. The current GDP of India is 7.6 and is expected to grow to 7.7 in the next year.

"In India, GDP growth will remain strong at 7.6 percent in 2016 and 7.7 percent in 2017, supported by  expectations of a rebound in agriculture, civil service pay reforms supporting consumption, increasingly positive contributions from exports and a recovery of private investment in the medium term," the World Bank, in report on South Asia Economic Focus released on 3rd October 2016.

"However, India faces the challenge of further accelerating the responsiveness of poverty reduction to growth, promotion inclusion, and extending gains to a broader range of human development outcomes to health, nutrition, education and gender, said the report.
