The Economy Survey will continue to be a two-volume report this time as it was in the past four years when Arvind Subramanian was the chief economic advisor (CEA). Incumbent Krishnamurthy Subramanian will lead the writing of the first volume, which will continue to be idea-centric and forward-looking, said multiple sources in the finance ministry.
Krishnamurthy Subramanian began work on the Survey in January, said sources. “He got to it early and held several rounds of meetings with officials within the ministry and others to discuss focus areas for the first volume of the Survey,” one of the officials said.
