Introduction & Agenda

India has defied global economic downturn with a robust 7% growth rate, bolstered by substantial government investment in infrastructure. Both manufacturing and services sectors have thrived, while tax revenues and corporate earnings have surged. Despite global volatility, steady crude prices and moderate inflation have buoyed Indian capital markets, fueling optimism for future growth. However, risks loom including geopolitical tensions, potential interest rate cuts, and structural challenges such as rural consumption weakness and income inequality. As India faces these challenges, stakeholders must collaborate to navigate potential hurdles and sustain the country's growth trajectory. The Mint India Investment Summit 2024 will address these concerns, offering insights into achieving sustained growth, fostering private capital, and overcoming regulatory obstacles. Please visit the Mint India Investment Summit 2024 page to learn about the latest updated Agenda & Confirmed Speakers.
