India's economy exhibits a robust growth trajectory, capable of surpassing 7% annual increase, even when crude oil prices range between USD 90-100 per barrel, according to industry body Assocham.
Over the years, India has built resilience against high energy costs, managing to absorb severe oil shocks while sustaining strong growth.
This resilience is attributed largely to domestic consumption, which has fueled manufacturing expansion, increased workforce deployment, and higher income levels, forming a growth-stimulating cycle.
