NEW DELHI (Reuters) - The Indian finance ministry expects robust economic growth despite the fall in the rupee and rising crude oil prices, a government source said on Thursday.

The source said the ministry would soon announce steps to boost exports, while not ruling out more import curbs.

The finance ministry saw no impact on Indian airlines from its decision to impose a 5 percent duty on jet fuel imports, the source added.
