Lockdown, Day 80: Climb up the reform ladder

On a day when India saw the sharpest spike of almost 11,000 new coronavirus cases, IMF hinted at extreme global poverty as a result of the crisis. It suggested that more funds will be needed in addition to the already spent $10 trillion by governments across the world.

On a brighter side, S&P Global predicts India's economic growth potential in medium and long-term is 6.5-7 per cent but reforms are critical for the country to get back to recovery after deep shock this year.
