The Bank also lowered its projection for fiscal year 2020, down from 6% growth to 5%.<\/p>\n<p>The restrictions implemented to prevent the spread of the covid-19 virus, heavily curtailed activity which will contribute to the contraction, according to the World Bank.<\/p>\n<p>The institution also predicted that the global economy would contract by -5.2% this year, representing the deepest global recession since World War 2.<\/p>\n<p>The World Bank is part of a growing list of agencies which have downgraded India\u2019s growth forecast this year. Rating agency Moody\u2019s predicted that growth would hit zero in fiscal year 2021, whilst Fitch Ratings forecast that the Indian economy would contract by as much as 5%.<\/p>\n<p>The broader risk climate also weighed on demand for the riskier Indian Rupee whilst boosting demand for the safe haven US Dollar.<\/p>\n<p>Risk sentiment took a hit on Tuesday as tensions between North Korea and South Korea edged up a notch.
