India, like the rest of the world, is currently grappling with profound uncertainty triggered by a combination of shocks, including geopolitical volatility, high inflation, supply chain disruptions, climatic events, and a deadly global pandemic. At the same time, there are several tailwinds that have the potential to power India’s growth in the coming years, from the scale of domestic consumption to favorable demographics, an expanding tech ecosystem, and rapid digitization of the economy.

In such a scenario, what is the appropriate economic model that could help Indian businesses withstand these shocks, as well as grow in a sustainable, inclusive, and resilient manner?

To discuss the path forward for India’s economy, Rajat Dhawan, McKinsey’s managing partner for India, recently sat down in the firm’s Mumbai office with McKinsey senior partner Alok Kshirsagar and McKinsey Global Institute partner Anu Madgavkar.
