"India's economy is in a very good shape. Even after so many challenges, our GDP has grown by 8.2% in Q2. And in that quarter, we haven't seen the impact of GST yet. We will be seeing the impact of GST in Q3. So, we have a very, very robust economy. And I am very confident that in the coming quarters and years, we will see a very good GDP growth. And the vibration that has come in the whole economy, I think it will be maintained in the future as well," Chandra said while speaking to ANI.

"And I can see that the credit growth of the banks, especially in retail credit, MSMEs, and agribusiness, there is a robust growth in all three sectors. And we will have good growth. I am completely confident, because we haven't seen the impact of GST yet in Q2. In spite of this, if our GDP has grown by 8.2%, then we are seeing the real impact of GST after 1st October. And we are seeing that in vehicle loan, we are growing by 30-35%. There is good growth in housing. There is good growth in MSMEs. So, we are foreseeing good growth in the coming quarters," he added further. (ANI)
