These numbers witnessed a growth rate of 2.3% and 37.1%, respectively, in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Most of the growth has been contributed by the banking and financial services sector. The sector has benefitted from an uptick in business upcycle and registered a robust performance on all financial metrics. Excluding this, the sales growth of 2,539 companies softened to 5.2%, whereas the net profit registered a decline of 3.1%. “The continued drag on sales growth is alarming as it signals weak domestic demand,” the report states.

data analytics, predictive tech and AI, data points are valuable not so much for what they tell us about the past but for how well they can predict the future. By that yardstick, Q1 GDP numbers released by NSO last Friday for the quarter ended June 2024 are likely to fail the test. In a world dogged by uncertainty, where black swan events are seemingly no longer the exception, macroeconomic numbers like GDP are incredibly hard to predict. The past is no guide to the future.

But, thanks to geopolitics, there are just too many unknown unknowns in the world today to expect GDP estimates for a single quarter to give us more than a very rough idea of how growth is likely to pan out in future.

Mark Zuckerberg may have a history of copying of others’ ideas, but when it comes to navigating the GenAI hype cycle, he’s the one forging a smarter path.
