What are the main reasons behind this?

People keep saying we'll overtake Japan, then you claim we're falling behind the UK. What's the real story?
The main reasons I see are the rupee's depreciation against the dollar and the recent change in the GDP base year. It seems more like a reporting-standards shift. There are other factors, but these two are major.
The delusion.
A one‑month‑old account is spamming across several subs, huh.
Sometimes I feel there should be some intellectual standard to post here. Too many clueless people are spamming it. This sub has really gone downhill. The chhaprification is obvious.
I'm not sure, but our country's situation feels at its lowest since the Iran‑USA/Israel conflict flared up again. India is being heavily trolled on global social media, and it's no longer just about our hygiene.
I think it's mainly because of the recent change in GDP calculation methodology (base‑year shift) or the rupee's depreciation against the dollar.
So if the rupee's depreciation caused this, the IMF has shown that exports haven't increased much. Shame on the bhakts.
I don't get why people act so irrationally. What was the point of celebrating becoming the fourth‑largest economy when our per‑capita income is around the 140th rank? In a nation of 1.4 billion, only about 5 crore pay direct taxes while 800 million rely on freebies. We have a long way to go and need to invest more in innovation.
Lost it? Brother, this is the UPSC sub. You won't find any viral anti‑government or dead‑economy posts here. Most people will just laugh at that.
