India Economy Thread

[Thinking]

Obviously trade deals India spends years negotiating are bad for India, only presenting minerals to Trump in a suitcase at the Whitehouse is good for the country.. we can only hope to learn more from your kind..

We are inherently stupid people. We hope to reach 7 trillion by 2035 and nearly 5K USD PCI. How smart can we possibly be?

I think INR is being kept artificially low to shield external trade.

Well it sure has taken sting out of Trump tariff, somewhat. We just don't have the scale, efficiency and "desire" to truly benefit from it. There are some who wish for Rs to slide all the way to 100 Rs per dollar. This can only benefit us if go through massive regulatory reforms, land and power price reduction, labor reform and improved judiciary.

Again use some brain cells. So called FTA deal is coming after EU ended India GSP status as of 1 January 2026.

Now India will have to make give and take FTA deal unlike in GSP era. Its good for EU, for India not so much.

Not really. FTA mean India will have to open up their markets for EU and in return India may not even get GSP like tariff. This trade deal is only good for EU but stupid Modi bakhts are hyping it up as if its some ground breaking.

I bet some of neighbours wished they had leader as stupid as modi

In ten years you may actually be nearly debt free and have some real forex and trade deals with Europe too .

Modi has taken India from 12th position to no 5 in global economic power as taken Forex to 700 billion dollars

Its B+ in my book

Modi have done jack shit. He is 8th fail who only won elections because of anti-muslim pogroms.

Indian economy is run by baniyas and dravidian states deciding to go all in IT services in 80’s.

Why do you think India behave like a little bitch when it comes to Trump but love to lecture Poland? $200bn deficit with USA is the reason.

Now EU have imposed tariff on 87% of Indian exports after terminating GSP status. Make no mistake this FTA deal will only benefit EU. India will not get GSP tariff again after being upgraded. Now you compete with China and not Bangaldesh for exports to EU. Good luck

GSP gives tariff preferences on a narrow set of goods. A modern FTA goes far beyond where India gains.
It also allows a more mature Indian industry to access European inputs at competitive prices, what you would want when you’re scaling up manufacturing and moving up the value chain and integrating into global supply chains.

If Pakistan couldn’t meaningfully expand exports even with 19% tariff preferences, that tells that the real constraint lies in competitiveness and not tariffs. India has long moved past that stage. We’re not a low capability, preference dependent exporter anymore, so there’s little reason to fear the loss of GSP. The real game now is productivity and scale.

If India dumping $50 billion in US Treasuries in just 16 days and not signing a FTA on US terms is behaving like what you suggested, what your leaders are doing with trump must be considered a BJ

I wish you would share more details, so the application layer they are just preparing, pivoting to what?

IT sector was oriented and developed largely towards services to global companies till recent past. They are now being pivoted towards AI application based solutions. College Curriculums and researches are also being pivoted accordingly. Many large IT companies have already started services and products based on AI, however the same will continue to be more competitive with each launches of the Indian models.

For the second layer, what use cases are you actually developing for, if you are just saying a smaller model with fewer parameters, well this is what deep seek already done.

There are 50 odd smaller models of about 10 to 100 billion parameters (compared with deep seek's 600+ billion parameters model) either developed or under development. Key Indian AI models and platforms include:

BharatGen, e-vikrAI, Sarvam-1, Krutrim (Ola), Hanooman / Everest 1.0 (SML), Chitralekha (AI4Bhārat), Airavata, Surya OCR, CoRover.ai / BharatGPT etc.

Combined effect of all these models will be that they will handle 90 to 95% of the tasks that the current global LLMs can handle.

For the third layer, so you are dependent on chips from external parties.

Isn't that apparent with India's current chip making capability?

Watch this snippet from Ashwini for a glimpse into what is happening

I am amazed by all the wisdom being thrown at us free of cost. So we will help Europeans? This is good, right! One must help. Us being stupid and helping are ofcourse deadly combo. We were finished by Trump last year and now these shocks. Soon we will close this thread and read about great economics works in neighborhood. Thank you.

So you have started your journey now and suddenly you belong in the top tier alongside China? Your man at davos is saying you already major player now


Across any aspect of AI, India is catching up, that should be obvious
