The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) projections for growth and inflation suggest that the Indian economy, thanks to the war in West Asia, has gone from a Goldilocks — low-inflation and high-growth — environment towards potential stagflation — high-inflation and low-growth. With the situation still fluid, RBI has chosen to wait and watch rather than make tangible changes to the key policy tools at its disposal. (File Image) RBI now expects the Indian economy to grow at 6.9% in 2026-27 with risks tilted to the downside. In the current GDP series, which has annual GDP growth data till 2023-24, this is the lowest and the first sub-7% growth. Inflation projection for 2026-27 now stands at 4.6% and inflation risks for 2026-27, according to RBI, are tilted to the upside.

And beginning the new season earlier this week in Guwahati against Rajasthan Royals, CSK were once again blown away in the powerplay before being all out for 127 against Rajasthan Royals. As CSK prepare to play their first home game of the season against Punjab Kings, all eyes are on how their young batting unit will come up. In the last two seasons, CSK have struggled in their own conditions, with the pitch at Chepauk becoming more batting-friendly. From being a venue where spinners called the shots, it has evolved into a pitch where pacers have got more purchase. And in the recent T20 World Cup, Chennai witnessed high-scoring games. All of it points to CSK playing on flat decks, which hasn’t been their strength in recent times. And on the eve of the game, Gaikwad said he isn’t sure of how …
