A major political and economic debate has broken out over India's 7.8% GDP growth numbers. The opposition and former Finance Secretary Subhash Chandra Garg questioned the data, claiming a revision in previous figures lowered the base and masked lower growth. The central government strongly rejected these allegations, clarifying that the 7.8% growth rate is accurate, calculated at constant prices using the new 2022-23 base year series, and accused critics of comparing different series. Meanwhile, NVIDIA Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang praised India's artificial intelligence potential, highlighting Prime Minister Narendra Modi's early vision and urging rapid adoption across Indian startups and enterprises.
