On this episode of the Long India Series, listen to Economist, Author,  and Investor, Harsh Gupta, speak about why he is bullish about India’s  growth. Harsh’s much acclaimed book, A New Idea of India, which he  co-authored with friend and investor, Rajeev Mantri, is a compelling  analysis of India’s social, economic, and political conditions and a  prognosis for its imminent rise to power. 
 In 2017, Harsh introduced ‘Modinomics’ as an overarching term to  describe Prime Minister Modi’s policies and in this conversation we  revisit its  various elements, including fiscal policy consolidation  while increasing infra spend, monetary policy hawkishness and low  inflation, structural reforms like GST, RERA, and  bankruptcy law,  formalisation of the economy through digitalisation, and state capacity  creation and smart welfare.   
Along the way, we discuss how India can move on from the pandemic and  also make good on our immense potential for growth owing to the  convergence of macroeconomic, technological, and geopolitical trends.  This is a fascinating conversation for anyone interested in  understanding India’s prospects for growth this decade. You can follow  Harsh’s views on Twitter (@harshmadhusudan) and Substack (Long India).  This podcast is available on YouTube, Apple, Google, Spotify, Breaker,  Stitcher, and other popular platforms.
