Re: Currency Demonetisation and Future course of Indian Economy
I wouldn't put it that way, rather you can say that I like to focus on the "real" part of the GDP growth rather than the "nominal" which includes the vaporware inflation component! Wrong again. It's the other way around. Nominal growth is what you see out in the world everyday. ...
