Do you have a good source for this, or should be take every anonymous Quora answer with literally zero references as the authoritative source on a topic as complex as the economy?<p>The comment is obviously flawed since it&#x27;s trying to equate the GDP to industrial production. In the US, for instance, the annualized industrial production has been -1.8% [1] but the GDP growth has been +3.4% annualized [2]. This is a difference of 4.2 percentage points, similar to India&#x27;s per the comment. Also, India&#x27;s export growth is around 1% - not exceptional, but definitely not -10% as stated in the Quora comment [3].<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wolframalpha.com&#x2F;input&#x2F;?i=us+industrial+production" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wolframalpha.com&#x2F;input&#x2F;?i=us+industrial+productio...</a><p>[2] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wolframalpha.com&#x2F;input&#x2F;?i=us+gdp+growth" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wolframalpha.com&#x2F;input&#x2F;?i=us+gdp+growth</a><p>[3] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wolframalpha.com&#x2F;input&#x2F;?i=india+export+growth" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wolframalpha.com&#x2F;input&#x2F;?i=india+export+growth</a>
