India becomes 5th largest economy. India’s GDP has risen to the fifth-largest in the world once more. To move up one spot, Britain is now in sixth place. In the latter three months of 2021, India passed Britain, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Even in the fiscal year 2022–2023, India keeps its GDP growth rates up. The economy of India was worth $ 854.7 billion.
The UK economy was worth $816 billion at the time. As prices rose for necessities, Britain’s GDP dropped from fifth to fifth-largest. The Indian economy, on the other hand, is expanding gradually. India was rated 11th among the world’s major economies ten years ago, while the UK was placed fifth.
In fact, the UK is currently experiencing its worst inflation and highest recession risk in four decades. This condition, according to the Bank of England, will last until 2024. The Indian economy, on the other hand, is anticipated to expand at a 7% rate this year.
