With 2015 around the corner, financial comparisons and expectations are already on the uprise.

Finance Minister, Arun Jaitley, according to Reuters, said he expects India's growth rate to be much better in the next year, on Monday.

Last year's July-September quarter saw the GDP increase by 5.3 per cent, as against the first quarter that marked a 5.7 per cent expansion. The Reuters report also specified a 5.5 per cent growth in the current financial year that ends on March 31.

Another report by The Hindu, shows that the United Nations has predicted India’s economic growth to improve to 6.3 per cent in 2016 with the country leading economic recovery in South Asia.
