Indian economy is headed towards deflation, said a leading global economic research firm, Goldman Sachs.
Goldman Sachs expects the year-on-year (y-o-y) change in the wholesale price index (WPI) to be negative starting from April and could remain so till end-2009, driven by the ongoing demand destruction as well as a high base from 2008.
Goldman expected the economy to enter a period of deflation from next month, and predicted it to last till the end of the calendar year due to continuing demand destruction and a sharp step up in the base.
