Tech billionaire Elon Musk said the global “balance of power is changing” after new data from the International Monetary Fund showed India ahead of the United States in driving global growth. IMF projections for 2026 place India among the top contributors to world GDP growth. India is expected to add 17 per cent, compared to 9.9 per cent from the United States. China and India together may account for over 40 per cent of global growth. The IMF also expects global inflation to ease, while trade tensions remain a risk. (PC: Reuters)
