Union Minister Piyush Goyal attended the CII Business Summit on Thursday.

Union Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal on Thursday said that for the next 30 years "we will continue to be the world’s fastest growing economy".

While speaking at the CII Annual Business Summit, Piyush Goyal said, "We are back on track, barring 3-4 months, on the growth trajectory. Hence, we are engaging in trade deals with UK, EU, Chile, USA. EFTA countries have committed $100 billion in pure play FDI in India. We are not aiming small."

"Even amidst international upheavals, India has done a fairly good job. The RBI has done a good job in maintaining the liquidity in the market. The stock market discounts the future by and large. In the past decade stock market has grown in India like no other nation. The returns are incomparable. Our returns are nearly 20% CAGR over some 100-200 companies," he added.

"IMF has projected by 2027 India will be the world’s third largest GDP. This is significant because it is happening despite global uncertainties," he added.
