The <keyword id="69007" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="World-Economic-Forum">World Economic Forum</keyword> has officially kicked off in Davos and unlike last year, where Indian prime minister Narendra Modi made a splash, most political leaders from India have pulled out of the event to focus on the upcoming general elections.

The buzz at Davos Indian economy can be bigger than China Former RBI governor <a href="https://www.thequint.com/news/business/india-to-become-bigger-than-china-eventually-raghuram-rajan">Raghuram Rajan </a>has made big predictions for India at the event. Rajan said that India will soon surpass the <keyword id="5639169" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="economy-of-china">economy of China</keyword> and will lead the infrastructure development in South Asia. “India will become bigger than China eventually as China would slow down and India would continue to grow. So India will be in a better position to create the infrastructure in the region which China is promising today. But this competition is good for the region and it will benefit for sure,” he said.

In an exclusive interview with <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/markets/expert-view/india-must-stick-to-fiscal-math-gita-gopinath-imf/articleshow/67634713.cms">ET now</a>, the IMF Chief said, “It is important for India to stay the course on fiscal consolidation. If you look at the aggregate deficit for India – combining the centre and the state deficits – has not improved much in the last five years. That is something that needs to be addressed.” However, The International Monetary Fund's (IMF) World Economic Outlook Update released by chief economist Gita Gopinath on Monday said that India's economy is expected to grow by 7.5 per cent in the 2019-20 fiscal year, keeping an upward trajectory as the rest of the world slumps.

This is the biggest business opportunity for the next few decades,” he said. He reminded the audience at WEF that on behalf of his employees of all the 100 companies from his group had taken a pledge to be carbon neutral 10 years before the agreed deadline for the world in the Paris agreement.

During his session in Davos, Jack Ma, Founder of Chinese e-commerce chain Alibaba, said how ‘the first job is the most important’ one and urged young people to 'promise’ themselves to stick to it for at least three years, which will let them sink into the work and figure out challenges and the strengths to overcome them. Though your first job may not be your ‘dream job’, he said, it should be the one that stretches you with the learning process. And it’s not necessary that it should be a good brand name, but it should have a good boss who nourishes you with the right way of doing things, he added. Fresh entrants frequently hop jobs that can have disastrous consequences, according to him.

 The advice, however, reflects his own experience as a teacher and leader at the two-decades old e-commerce giant. He pointed out that through his journey, he has seen young people quitting their jobs at a very early stage, which doesn’t allow them to fit in and work efficiently. Separately, he added that he prefers to hire people<a href="https://www.businesstoday.in/wef-2019/i-hire-people-who-are-smarter-than-me-says-alibaba-chairman-jack-ma/story/313207.html"> ‘smarter’</a> than him — who have the potential to lead the way, years down the line.
