Assam's journey of progress has been further marked by a fresh wave of recognition. This time, the spotlight is on Assam for its commendable performance in the latest review by India Ratings and Research, a part of the Fitch Group.
Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma tweets, "Another thumbs up for Assam, this time from Fitch Ratings, India Ratings. In the last 5 years since Covid19, Assam has recorded an average GSDP growth of 7% - making us among the TOP 3 states driving India’s economic recovery..."
By consistently maintaining a high growth trajectory over five consecutive years, Assam has carved out a place for itself among the country's fastest-developing states. In this period, the state’s GSDP has almost doubled—fueled by substantial domestic investments and the successful attraction of ₹200 crore in direct foreign investment.
Today, Assam is making all-out efforts to position itself as a significant force in the nation’s development journey. If this momentum continues over the next five years, the state's GSDP is poised to surpass ₹10 lakh crore, marking a historic milestone. With this, Assam is also on track to become one of India’s top five states in terms of growth and contribution.
