Budget 2018: From GDP to inflation, which fares better - Modi govt or UPA?

The NDA government was able to control inflation more efficiently than the UPA government, aided by soft commodity prices. However, it could not accelerate economic growth by much

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley will present the fifth and last full Budget of the Narendra Modi-led government's first term on Thursday. He is the first finance minister in National Democratic Alliance (NDA) governments to present all five Union Budgets in a term. In the previous NDA government, headed by A B Vajpayee, the then finance minister Yashwant Sinha was replaced by Jaswant Singh in 2002.
 
Call it sheer luck of soft commodity prices or better management, the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government was able to control inflation much more efficiently than the legacy handed down by the UPA government.
