Director Admissions : Hardly twenty years ago, India managed a GDP of close to a 320 Billion USD, which was a mere 6% of the then US GDP. Foreign debt was crippling our economy till the liberalization platform offered a bail out and a path for growth. In the last two decades, with a consistent growth rate of anywhere close to 8%, our GDP is inching towards the coveted 2 trillion USD mark – which in comparison terms is about 12% of the current US GDP.
