Key quotes
“While the economic impact of the Omicron wave in 4QFY22 (Jan-March) could be lower than previous waves, the activity momentum in 3QFY22 was much lower than our expectation.”
“Downgrades its real GDP growth forecast for FY23 to 8.3% against 8.7% earlier.”
‘Still, lower hospitalization rates, shorter Covid wave cycle period, higher vaccination coverage and weakening link between Covid and activities give enough reasons to be hopeful of a less-disruptive Covid wave.”
