It notes that demonetization increased funds for banks to lend, moving the economy from cash to digital payments. GST is described as a business reform rather than just a tax reform. It is expected to make India more competitive globally and shift it from a trading hub to a manufacturing hub as systems improve. The challenges discussed include revenue slippages during GST implementation and higher government spending. Impacts on wealth are discussed for equity, debt, real estate and gold markets.
