‘Indian economy resilient, can absorb shocks’: FM Sitharaman amid 50% US tariffs; targets 8% GDP growth

“印度经济具备韧性，可抵御冲击”：美关税加征50%之际，西塔拉曼提出8%GDP增长目标

Union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday highlighted India’s growing economic resilience and said that the nation is well-equipped to absorb external shocks, amid ongoing external trade tensions.

“Our capacity to absorb shocks is strong, while our economic leverage is evolving. Our choices will determine whether resilience becomes a foundation for leadership or merely a buffer against uncertainty. So in conclusion, history teaches us that crises often precede renewal,” FM Sitharaman said while addressing the inauguration of the 4th edition of the Kautilya Economic Conclave.

“Geopolitical conflicts are intensifying. Sanctions, tariffs and decoupling strategies are resha global supply chains,” she added.

She said that these dynamics highlight both India’s vulnerability and resilience and hailed the ability to absorb shocks.

印度联邦财政部长尼尔马拉·西塔拉曼于周五强调，印度经济的韧性正不断增强。她表示，在当前持续的对外贸易紧张局势下，印度完全有能力抵御外部冲击。

“我们抵御冲击的能力很强，经济影响力也在逐步提升。我们的选择将决定，韧性究竟会成为引领地位的基石，还是仅仅作为应对不确定性的缓冲。总之，历史告诉我们，危机之后往往迎来新生。”西塔拉曼部长在第四届考底利耶经济峰会开幕式致辞时如此说道。

她补充道：“地缘政治冲突不断加剧，制裁、关税和脱钩策略正在重塑全球供应链。”

西塔拉曼指出，这些局势既凸显了印度经济的脆弱性，也彰显了其韧性。她对印度抵御冲击的能力表示认可。

Becoming Viksit Bharat by 2047 does not implies that India wants to be a closed economy, the FM said, adding, “we have to reach 8% GDP growth to get to the goal for a developed nation.”

These remarks come amid a standoff between the US and India, with Washington slap an additional 25% tariff on Indian imports, atop the exsting 25% duty.

She further added that India’s strong domestic factors will minimise the impact of ongoing global uncertainties.

“We are in a shifting global landscape which resembles a zero-sum approach. Indian economy is resilient and continues to grow sustainably.”

She added that the current fragmentation could pave the way for more sustainable and unexpected forms of cooperation. The key, the FM said, is to ensure that inclusivity guides such collaboration. For develo nations, this is essential, not merely an idealistic goal.

这位财政部长表示，印度计划到2047年建成“发达印度”（Viksit Bharat），但这并不意味着印度要成为封闭型经济体。她补充称：“要实现发达国家的目标，我们的GDP增长率必须达到8%。”

此番言论发表之际，美印正处于对峙状态。美国在现有25%关税的基础上，又对印度输美商品额外加征了25%的关税（即总关税达50%）。

西塔拉曼进一步表示，印度国内经济的强劲基本面，将把当前全球不确定性带来的影响降至最低。

“我们正处于一个零和思维式的全球格局变革中。但印度经济具备韧性，将继续实现可持续增长。”

她还提到，当前的全球分裂态势，或许会为更具可持续性、更出人意料的合作形式铺平道路。西塔拉曼强调，关键在于确保包容性成为这类合作的指导原则。对发展中国家而言，这并非单纯的理想目标，而是必不可少的要求。

以下是印度网友的评论：

Our strength is we have very experienced and knowledgeable persons on economy like P. Chidambaram, very talented Finance minister, we have Raghuram Rajan, and technologist Sam Pitroda sir etc. If government uses exsting talent, we can withstand any pressure from outside.

我们的优势是，有很多懂经济、经验丰富的人才。比如P·奇丹巴拉姆，他是非常有能力的财政部长；还有拉古拉姆·拉詹，以及技术专家山姆·皮特罗达先生等人。只要政府用好这些现有人才，就能顶住任何外部压力。

Great India
Today's India is a result of visionary Neharujee better education and proficiency in English gave us edge over rest of the world in International skilled workers, Today education budget is shrinking year after year. BJP doesn't care for better education.

如今的印度，是有远见的尼赫鲁先生带来的成果。优质的教育和流利的英语，让我们在国际技术人才领域，比世界其他国家更有优势。可现在，教育预算一年比一年少，人民党根本不关心教育质量的提升。

Really? 8%? That will be an outstanding performance if achieved! My advance prayers and congratulations!!

真的吗？8%的增长率？要是能实现，那绝对是出色的成绩！我先提前祈祷，也提前祝贺！

Chidambaran looted India and has billions in assets. Piyroda is a Gandhi chamcha and has no financial knowledge. Congress spoons will never understand the progress and development of present government. They know how to oppose the government.

奇丹巴拉姆搜刮印度，名下有数十亿资产。皮特罗达就是甘地家族的跟屁虫，根本不懂经济。国大党的那些人，永远看不到现任政府的进步和发展，他们就只会反对政府。

Des Raj
The comments of our finance minister are a slap on the face of Trump amid his hike on tarrifs. Plenty to learn from India Sam uncle.

特朗普加征关税的时候，我们财政部长这番话，简直是打了他一记耳光。山姆大叔（美国）真该好好学学印度。

Vilas Gangamwar
To become developed nation, Govt should also focus and define per Km travel time. We are losing our time and money both due to poor infra. Central govt needs to shift the focus from National Level Infra to town level infra.

要成为发达国家，政府还得关注并明确每公里的通行时间。现在基础设施太差，我们既浪费时间又浪费钱。中央政府得把重点从国家级基础设施，转移到城镇级基础设施上。

Hail for India….

Been hearing these figures for too long. Notes ban & GST glitches made for job losses especially in MSME sector snd now with Trump Tariffs exports in certain sectors will affect us and then there os AI taking over IT/ ITES jobs especially entry level ones . Less said about delay in onboarding even after job offer letters given and the lay offs by big companies leeting go of experienced people.

这些数字我听了太久了。废钞令和商品服务税出问题，已经导致很多人失业，尤其是中小微企业领域。现在特朗普加征关税，又会影响某些行业的出口。而且人工智能还在抢占IT和IT服务行业的工作，尤其是入门级岗位。更别提有些公司发了录用通知，却迟迟不安排入职；还有大公司裁员，把有经验的员工都辞退了，这些事真是一言难尽。

Dream sellers all the way.

全都是卖梦想的人。

2014 fragile 5 and today top 4th economy! But how can we praise this govt! Loyal Congress

2014年，我们还是“脆弱五国”之一，现在已经是全球第四大经济体了！可有些人就是不肯夸现任政府，因为他们是国大党的死忠粉。

Common Man
The FM should comment in the midst of US Tariff war

在美国关税战正激烈的时候，财政部长就该站出来表态。

Flash
We are with you Madam. We cannot fold before the US on Tariff and have to stay with RUssia. US is an untrustworthy ally and so is China. We will be left alone in our next war with Pak if we ditch Russia for the fear of tariffs. It is ok if there is a temporary lull in the economy.

部长女士，我们支持您。在关税问题上，我们不能向美国低头，必须和俄罗斯站在一起。美国是靠不住的盟友，中国也一样。要是我们因为害怕关税而抛弃俄罗斯，下次和巴基斯坦打仗时，就没人帮我们了。就算经济暂时停滞，也没关系。
