NEW DELHI: Security prining of currency is a time-consuming
exercise; RBI calibrating release of currency says Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
Volume of trade, business will grow but size of paper
currency will shrink said FM on demonetisation.
Country has welcomed demonetisation; difficult to
estimate disruption in this quarter, it does have impact but will not last long says FM.
Rabi sowing is higher than last year; mixed trend in auto sales: FM on impact of demonetisation on economy.
India is likely to continue to be fastest growing major
economy in world like last year said FM.
Some disruption is bound to be created due to switchover
but long term advantages are huge said FM on demonetisation.
Constitution does not provide for delay in GST, says
Jaitley. (agencies)
