As Covid-19 cases in India swell and its impact and recovery scenarios change by the day, it is high time for the Indian government and authorities concerned to prepare for multiple scenarios -- act now, prepare for near term and build for medium term, a new BCG report has said.

According to the report titled "Covid-19: India Perspective," three potential scenarios could emerge - Rapid recovery (V) or Slow comeback (U) or Protracted challenge (L) driven by evolving properties of the virus, containment and mitigation, treatment/vaccine development lead-time and policy and fiscal response.
