Indian Economy and Business: Key Developments on September 18-19, 2025

September 19, 2025

India's economic landscape witnessed significant developments over the past 24 hours, with Union Minister Piyush Goyal projecting a 6% growth in exports for 2025 and Financial Services Secretary M Nagaraju urging increased corporate investments to fuel economic progress. Major GST reforms, including a simplified tax structure and abolition of GST on educational and health-related items, are anticipated to inject Rs 2 lakh crore into the economy.

Meanwhile, ongoing trade discussions with the US aim to resolve tariff issues and address concerns over visa revocations for some Indian executives.
