India set to grow faster than G7 nations

New Delhi

India is expected to grow faster than all G7 countries, according to a new report by wealth management firm Equirus. The report highlights India’s strong economy, increasing capital investment, and growing rural demand as key reasons for this rise.

Mitesh Shah, CEO of Equirus Credence Family Office, said India is no longer just a fast-growing economy on paper. It is now structurally stronger than many developed countries. The report said India will contribute over 15% to global GDP growth from 2025 to 2030, outpacing Japan and Germany.

India’s rural demand for fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) grew by 6%, more than double the urban growth of 2.8%. This shows that rural areas are leading the country’s economic recovery. Also, the spending gap between rural and urban families has dropped, narrowing from 84% to 70% over ten years.

Another big driver is capital expenditure (capex), which has grown by 17.4%. This growth is backed by a ₹2.5 lakh crore cash injection and government support. The report also points out that as global companies reduce their dependence on China, India is becoming a preferred manufacturing hub. For example, Apple is increasing iPhone production in India.

The report advises investors to rethink their investment strategies. It says the old 60/40 investment model is outdated. Instead, people should look at global opportunities and focus on growing sectors. With low oil prices and a weakening US dollar, India’s import costs are also going down.

India’s rising role in global supply chains and strong policies make it a top destination for long-term investment.
