The corona virus is slowly spreading to the rest of the world which was largely concentrated in China: and is expected to have adverse economic consequences. If China's economy slows to 1.2 per cent in January-March quarter the GDP shock to India from the demand side could be about 0.4- 0.5 per cent, the report said. But the rest of the world slows if China slows, particularly many South Asian and European economies.
