West Asia crisis: Can Indian economy absorb global shocks? Top economists weigh in

In this edition of India Today Roundtable Special, the focus is on the fuel price hike and the state of the Indian economy. After days of speculation, the government on Friday hiked petrol and diesel prices by Rs 3 per litre for the first time in more than four years, as surging global crude prices following the Iran war forced state-run. Earlier on Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi appealed to citizens to spend wisely and conserve fuel in view of the international situation. So the questions we are raising on the show are: is the Indian economy strong enough to absorb these global shocks? Should we be bracing for more fuel price hikes now? Is a savings push going to drag down growth? Is India's 'Goldilocks' moment over? Watch as the country's top economists share their perspectives on these and more on Economy Roundtable with Rajdeep Sardesai.
