Discussion on:

India to be the world's largest economy by 2050 -Wealth Report

Not that I'll be around to collect.
Any prognostications beyond five years are complete guesses. I could just as easily posit that India as a nation won't even exist in its current form by then, and I'm just as likely to be correct.

Lineal Growth projections look great, but unfortunately, both China and India lack the credit transparency and culture resilience the U. S. has repeatedly demonstrated. When the bubble pops, no matter how much they copy, their agile ability to spread the wealth will fail to lift their local moored boats when the tide comes in. One only has to point to the toothless Japanese Dragon that withered away their global trade dominance by spending their borrowed and stretched yen to the detriment of their proud and yearning populist.
