India can achieve 8-9% growth with structural reforms: Ex-CEA Subramanian

Business Standard

India can unlock 8-9 per cent economic growth by accelerating structural reforms to reduce the cost of doing business and the cost of financing, former Chief Economic Adviser Krishnamurthy V Subramanian said on Monday. He called for implementing factor market reforms in land, labour, and capital, as well as judicial and bureaucratic reforms. "Macroeconomic stability got India to 7 per cent growth. Institutional reforms can take India to 9 per cent," Subramanian said told PTI in an interview. "India achieved above-8 per cent growth when private investment as a share of GDP was more than 30 per cent. We are currently at around 22-23 per cent, 7-8 per cent short of the target," he said. "We will then leapfrog from 7 to 9 per cent growth!" Subramanian said, adding that the public capital expenditure of the last five years has laid the infrastructure that private investment follows, and the banking system with gross NPAs near multi-decade lows is ready to support it.

I-T department raises Cost Inflation Index for current fiscal to 384

Business Standard

The income tax department has increased the Cost Inflation Index for the current fiscal for calculating long-term capital gains arising from the sale of immovable property, securities and jewellery. The Cost Inflation Index (CII) is used by taxpayers to calculate gains from the sale of capital assets after adjusting inflation. The Cost Inflation Index for FY 2026-27 is 384, as per a notification of the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT). The CII for fiscal 2025-26 was 376. AMRG Global Managing Partner Rajat Mohan said the annual notification of the Cost Inflation Index reflects the government's commitment to maintaining an objective inflation-adjustment mechanism wherever indexation benefits continue under the new tax framework. It provides taxpayers, valuers and tax professionals with clarity for computing the indexed cost and reduces interpretational disputes, Mohan added. CII or Cost Inflation Index is notified under the Income-tax Act, 1961 every year. It is popularly used

China's GDP growth slows sharply in second quarter, misses target

Business Standard

China's economy slowed sharply to 4.3 per cent in the second quarter, its lowest since 2022, weighed down by stagnant domestic demand and higher energy costs linked to the US-Iran war offsetting the robust export growth. China's gross domestic product (GDP) grew 4.7 per cent year on year in the first half of 2026, generating around 69.57 trillion yuan (about USD 10.25 trillion) in output, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) announced on Wednesday. But the world's second-largest economy expanded by 4.3 per cent in the April-June quarter, slowing from 5 per cent growth in the first quarter, falling below China's annual growth target. The first full quarter of GDP data since the start of the US-Iran war in February marks the lowest quarterly expansion since the end of 2022, the period when China emerged from its strict Covid-19 restrictions. The GDP data came a day after official customs figures showed China's exports surged by 27 per cent year-on-year in June, underscoring the ..
