Inflation targeting has worked for India, it is one of Modi govt’s defining achievements

#IlaNomics #Inflation

The inflation targeting regime has controlled the high & volatile nature of inflation. This reform is a sign of India’s institutional maturation.
There’s growing clamour to scrap the inflation targeting framework of the RBI. Economist Ila Patnaik and ThePrint’s Managing Editor YP Rajesh discuss why the system is actually a success, and one of Modi govt’s defining achievements.

Everybody can’t gain from Every policy..well said. Good analysis.

Banks can’t take care of all investment needs of a Nation. India needs more billionaires and HNIs who will make quality investments and promote businesses and industries. They will keep both interest rates and inflation, to an extend, automatically remain subdued.

With more investments, more jobs will be created.

The audio is not the usual we get. A lot of attention is lost due to the noise. there are no subtitles either to make up for it.. :/ although the bullet points help. That being said, still a big fan of IlaNomics. :)

Audio is too messed up. Poor audio has now become a perennial part it seems in ilanomics.

Looks like very good information took extra effort to understand unsuccessful.

ILA mam has great knowledge about economics...she is candid about difficulties and solutions....I was watching one of the left oriented journalist who use to run a program "simple samachar" was saying that no company will displace from China and come to India...but today we see companies leaving china are preferring Vietnam, Indonesia and India...Infact India is reaping benefits with PLA scheme..!!!

As usual the learned professor puts forth the most reasonable view on complex issues faced by the Indian economy. The crucial part of the video is where she says that India has struck a good balance between low inflation and low rate of interest. I would rather listen to her than the high flying obscurantist international economists who anyway don’t have a good word for India. 👌

@theprint a small feedback. Audio was not proper.

[chandankumar]

Please use good microphone.. I am big fan of yours and even I am overseas subscriber as well. I don't want this session wasted because of poor voice quality :(

[neetuhareet]

print it was a good episode, but you should definitely improve the quality of videos too .
I hope you will consider .

[ajinkyakumarsuryawanshi]

Sound quality is very bad.
You can't hear anything..

[akshaysinha]

I will subscribe when biased journalists like Shanaz Ansari and Fathima Khan get fired.

I think RBI has the flexibility of breaching the inflation target for 2 quarters without any showcause notice to the govt.

[gopaakrishnanmvenkataraman]

If not the economists will say
RUN AWAY INFLATION
MODI ACHIEVED

[mayankmukherjee]

ILA Madam your voice is not coming out clearly - disappointed. This seems to be a regular problem with The Print Videos (1/2 out of every 10 videos - which is huge).

[YS-hlhy]

Although India's growth has also suffered due to inflation targeting.

[gitaskitchen]

Onion 60 rs kg Moong dal 100 kg Vegetables beyond rich of middle class @ you said inflation is achivement of Modi government. Frist government should give right figure of inflation.

[siddhu]

We need someone other than YP Rajesh to anchor. He may be a good editor but a very irritating interviewer. I have been wanting to say for a while but saying it after paying the subscription now

[anbu]
