NEW DELHI, Aug. 30 (Xinhua) -- India's economic growth rate reached 6.7 percent in the first quarter (April to June) of the 2024-25 fiscal year, according to government data released on Friday.
This marks a decline from the previous quarter (January to March), which recorded a growth rate of 7.8 percent.
The slowdown in growth during the April-June quarter has been attributed to underperformance in the agricultural sector, marking the slowest pace of growth in five quarters.
The previous low was recorded at 6.2 percent in January-March 2023.
