India’s economy’s growth rate is at a six-year low. The Central Statistics Office released its figures for the first quarter of 2019-20 and the growth rate is at 5 percent, even lower than the number the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had predicted in its annual report on the economy just a day ago.

This comes after a high number of job losses have been reported, in the auto industry as well as in other industries, and consumer spending has fallen significantly.
