India's economy grew by 8.2% in the quarter ending in September, supported by industry and domestic consumption, despite American tariffs.

India's economy recorded a growth of 8.2% in the third quarter, exceeding analysts' estimates, despite the impact of the 50% tariffs imposed by the United States on exports. This acceleration compared to the 7.8% growth in the previous quarter was supported by a strong recovery in the industrial, construction, and domestic consumption sectors. The nominal GDP increased by 8.7%, and the financial and real estate services saw substantial growth of 10.2%. Although domestic consumption was temporarily tempered due to the anticipation of tax cuts, demand exploded in October, fueled by the tax reductions. Additionally, the trade deficit increased due to high gold imports. The International Monetary Fund forecasts a continuation of economic growth, estimating an advance of 6.6% in 2026, despite external challenges.
