Kolkata: Chief Economic Advisor Krishnamurthy Subramanian on March 13 has said that the country requires growth at this juncture, even with economic tradeoffs, as it aspires to increase its dominance and self- reliance in the global economy.

Subramanian’s comment comes ahead of the revision of policy framework and inflation targets by the Monetary Policy Committee headed by the RBI Governor by March 31.

It will be the first review for RBI since it was tasked with a mandated inflation target of 4% with a 2% deviation either way in June 2016, when it adopted a flexible inflation targeting model.

At this juncture we must focus on growth and when it comes to pressures for trade-offs, we must be leaning on growth, Subramanian said at a virtual annual regional meeting of the CII, Eastern Region.

He also called for a change in the mindset on how to increase the pie of government taxes instead of seeking its reduction across sectors.

He said the cycle of private sector investment will begin though there is a lag and to support it government spending in capex is necessary. The government has already begun it and it will trigger private investment.
