An AI-based report says India can manage a short disruption in the Strait of Hormuz, but a longer crisis could hurt the economy. The simulation found that government measures such as fuel subsidies and tax cuts could reduce the impact during the first 90 days. However, costs would rise if the disruption continued beyond three months. "India was able to manage the crisis during the first 90 days," the report said. It warned that a prolonged blockade could increase inflation, raise fuel and cooking gas prices, weaken the rupee, and put pressure on businesses and households. (PC : Reuters)
