Growth is a word that is ambient to the hearts of numerous policymakers in the Capital, peculiarly the North Block mandarins.

But the Central Statistics Office's advance estimation of five per cent GDP development for 2012-13 came as a surprise not just to the markets, but also to the Finance Ministry.

Subsequently a long time, the CSO and the Finance Ministry were not on the same leaf. The explanation is not far to perceive. At a time when the Finance Ministry is incisive to promote more capital inflows, a five per cent GDP growing is liable to conquer the investment sentiment.
