It has been an eventful and momentous year on the economic front in India. While rocked by the successive shock waves of economic policy and reforms, we believe the Indian economy has ended up in a stronger place compared to one year ago. Some key events of the year:
Demonetisation; GST; Bank Recapitalisation; Ease of Business Index; Moodys’ Ratings

IndusGuru’s journey in 2017-18 has also mirrored the economy. While we faced challenges during the year, we are now on a sounder footing with a strong, more feature rich and responsive online platform.
