New York, Oct 7 (IBNS) The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Tuesday hiked India's 2014-15 growth forecast to 5.6 per cent.

It said Indian economy will  expand by 6.4 per cent in 2015.

According to the IMF website, it has  forecast a global growth to average 3.3 percent in 2014―unchanged from 2013―and to rise to 3.8 percent in 2015. 

Olivier Blanchard, Economic Counsellor and head of the IMF’s Research Department was quoted as saying by the website: "In advanced economies, the legacies of the precrisis boom and the subsequent recession, notably high debt burdens and unemployment, still cast a shadow on the recovery, and low potential growth ahead is a concern.”
