India serves as a crucial anchor for this expansion. The country maintains its momentum even as global trade faces significant challenges.
Impressive Regional Performance

Other nations in the region benefit from India's strong position. Neighboring economies experience spillover effects. Trade linkages within South Asia strengthen overall performance. The region demonstrates an ability to withstand external pressures.
India's Anchoring Role

Manufacturing activities show particular strength. Service industries continue their expansion. Digital transformation initiatives support economic resilience. India's large market size offers advantages during uncertain times.
Overcoming Trade Headwinds
