As a result, it has become the second largest economy of the world while India has replaced Japan to become the third largest in the world economy. By 2050, if the Indian economy continuous to maintain the current growth pace (GDP growth 7 per cent), it will be the dominant global supplier of services while China would dominate the global manufacturing industry, due to which Asia will regain its financial and economical supremacy over the western world.” TNS
