The RBI has revised the current fiscal year's growth forecast to 7%, citing recovery in domestic demand, global economic improvement, and vaccination progress. However, inflationary risks, driven by supply-side factors, pose a threat to the Goldilocks Effect, with the RBI warning that inflation may persist above its target range of 2-6%.
The Goldilocks Effect is a situation where the economy is neither too hot nor too cold, but just right for optimal growth and low inflation.
