India's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for the second quarter of FY26 is set to be announced, with expectations ranging from 7% to 7.5% growth. Key focus will be on the nominal GDP growth rate, which impacts tax revenues and company profits, alongside real GDP. Analysts will watch investment and consumption demand, the effect of GST rate cuts, rural vs. urban consumption, and external sector performance impacted by global trade dynamics. Manufacturing and services sector performance, influenced by base effects, will also be crucial indicators for the economic outlook.
