In today’s episode, we sit down with Jayant Mundhra, Founder - Biz News+ and Creator - Decoding the Dragon & BharatNama Newsletters, to understand the deeper problems behind India’s economy.
We discuss why PM Modi asked Indians to buy less gold, how gold imports weaken the rupee, and why India remains heavily dependent on imports despite calling itself self-reliant. Jayant explains China’s long-term strategy, why the yuan is slowly gaining power, and why India still struggles to compete with China in manufacturing.
The conversation also covers weak currency, energy dependency, AI outflow, freebies vs long-term growth, and why India risks becoming only a consumer economy. He explains why solving supply chains, production, and industrial depth matters more than short-term narratives.
