Why have the data released this week surprised global analysts for the second time in two quarters? What domestic and external challenges does China’s economy face, and how has it managed them?

Trump’s tariff war was expected to dent the Chinese economy. But the data since the start of 2025 has been counterintuitive. While the US economy shrank in Q1 with persistent worries about a recession, China's growth has beaten expectations. Can China's GDP data be trusted?.

Latest #ExplainSpeaking.Is India really one of the most equal countries in the world as the Indian government claims?.I bring out the fallacy in government's view. #Inequality.
Referring to a World Bank brief, the government has claimed India is world’s ‘fourth most equal country’. What does this conclusion miss? What are pitfalls of relying solely on consumption-based Gini Index? @ieuditmisra explains:.

This week’s ExplainSpeaking on what you need to know about India’s poverty rate.
Bizarre as it may seem, especially for a country with so many people at low levels of income and consumption, as well as a country with an enviable record of studying poverty, India’s poverty lies in the eyes of the beholder. @ieuditmisra explains why.
