Mumbai, September 9
RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das on Thursday said many fast indicators are showing an uptick in economic activity and the RBI is quite optimistic about its 9.5% GDP growth estimate for FY2021-22 at present.
He said the impact of the second wave of Covid has waned by August, and economic growth will be better from the second quarter onwards on a sequential basis.
