“After a growth spurt from 2006 to 2011, the country lapsed back into a plodding pace as economic reforms lost steam. India’s government, in an effort to narrow the current-account gap, has tried to curb gold imports and announced a plan to buy more of the country’s oil from Iran through what is effectively a barter mechanism. On Wednesday, the country reduced the amount of money residents and companies can send abroad, sparking fears of more-draconian measures. The government says these moves aren’t a prelude to capital controls and that it doesn’t plan to impose restrictions on companies repatriating profits.”
