Nomura brokerage reports that India's festive consumption growth rate halved to 15% this year, down from 32% in 2023 and 88% in 2022, due to weak demand in metros and industrial areas, although rural areas and tier-2 and tier-3 cities saw steady demand. Nomura predicts a "cyclical growth slowdown" in the economy, with downside risks to its 6.7% real GDP growth estimate.
