The conflict in West Asia has demonstrated the speed with which geopolitical shocks have been transmitted to India’s domestic economy. India is projected to see its economy growth slowdown from 7.4% in FY26 to 6.5% in FY27 with a projected increase in inflation from 2.3% to 4.4% due to disruptions observed in the energy supply chains.
