Managing Inflation in the Post-Crisis Environment
The Indian economy weathered the global crisis of 2008-09 quite well. Even as much of the developed world is still quite some distance from its pre-crisis growth rate, several emerging market economies (EMEs) have made up the lost ground relatively quickly. As indicated in Chart 1, India saw its growth rate decline from 9.2 per cent in 2007-08 to a trough of 6.7 per cent in 2008-09.

Over-the-counter derivative markets in India issues and perspectives - Article by Smt Shyamala Gopinath, Deputy Governor, RBI, Published in July 2010 Issue of Financial Stability Review, Banque de France.
The present article tries to put in perspective the boundary conditions, imposed by the macroeconomic constraints, which have guided the evolution of over-the-counter (OTC) markets in India and underlines the point that the process of transiting from a predominantly OTC based model to an exchange-traded model needs to follow a calibrated path.

India and the Global Financial Crisis Transcending from Recovery to Growth
India clocked average growth of 9 per cent per annum in the five years to 2007/08. That growth momentum was interrupted by the financial crisis which impacted India too, more than we had originally thought but less than it did most other countries. Despite falling below 6 per cent for one quarter, the growth for the full year 2008/09 was a resilient 6.7 per cent.
