Sitharaman's comments come days after a Morgan Stanley report stated, India is set to surpass Japan and Germany to become the world's third-largest economy by 2027.

"Three megatrends--global offshoring, digitalization, and energy transition--are setting the scene for unprecedented economic growth in the country of more than one billion people", Morgan Stanley said in a report.

"India's gross domestic product (GDP) could more than double from $3.5 trillion today to surpass $7.5 trillion by 2031. Its share of global exports could also double over that period, while the BSE could deliver 11 percent annual growth, reaching a market capitalization of $10 trillion in the coming decade," said the report titled 'India's Impending Economic Boom'.
