Nepal’s Economic Growth Stuck Around 4% as Industry Shrinks and Service Sector Dominance Expands

Nepal’s Economic Growth Stuck Around 4% as Industry Shrinks and Service Sector Dominance Expands Nepal’s economic growth has historically remained around an average of 4 percent, reflecting a relatively modest pace of expansion over the long term. According to the latest Macroeconomic Report released by the Nepal Rastra Bank on Tuesday, the country’s potential growth rate has been estimated at around 4.3 percent. The report identifies the period between 1986 and 1995 as a significant phase of economic expansion, during which the growth rate surpassed the estimated potential level. In the years that followed, however, economic growth largely stabilized around the potential rate, while structural changes within the economy gradually began to emerge.

Middle East Conflict Raises Concerns Over India’s Energy Security and Regional Economic Stability

Middle East Conflict Raises Concerns Over India’s Energy Security and Regional Economic Stability The intensifying conflict in the Middle East has begun to raise concerns about the stability of global energy supply, with early indications suggesting that India could face disruptions in its natural gas imports. As tensions in the region escalate, uncertainties surrounding key maritime routes and production facilities are drawing attention from governments and energy companies across South Asia. India’s largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) importer, Petronet LNG, has warned that the ongoing geopolitical tensions may affect its operations. According to a notice issued to the stock exchange, vessels carrying LNG may encounter difficulties reaching QatarEnergy’s major loading port at Ras Laffan via the Strait of Hormuz. This narrow waterway is one of the most critical energy transit routes in the world, through which a significant portion of global oil and gas shipments passes. Any disruption along this corridor could therefore have wide-ranging implications for international energy markets.

Green Economy Emerges as Central Election Agenda as Parties Compete Over Forest-Based Prosperity Plans

Green Economy Emerges as Central Election Agenda as Parties Compete Over Forest-Based Prosperity Plans Kathmandu — With the upcoming House of Representatives elections approaching, Nepal’s major political parties have increasingly placed the green economy at the center of their campaign narratives, presenting forest conservation and sustainable resource use as pathways to economic growth, employment generation, and climate resilience. The shift signals a growing recognition among political actors that environmental policy is no longer limited to conservation debates but has become closely tied to economic strategy and voter appeal. Across party manifestos, forests are being framed not merely as ecological assets but as economic engines capable of driving rural development and reducing import dependency. Campaign messaging highlights job creation, carbon trading opportunities, climate adaptation programs, and sustainable natural resource management as tools to attract voters amid economic uncertainty and rising unemployment concerns.

Nepal Begins Budget Work, Sets Up Revenue Advisory Committee to Shape Tax and Economic Reforms

Nepal Begins Budget Work, Sets Up Revenue Advisory Committee to Shape Tax and Economic Reforms Kathmandu — Nepal’s Ministry of Finance has formally kicked off the process of preparing the national budget for the upcoming fiscal year by constituting a Revenue Advisory Committee, signaling the start of the government’s annual fiscal planning cycle. Officials say the move is aimed at collecting structured policy input before the budget ceiling, priorities, and tax proposals are finalized. According to the ministry, the committee has been formed under a decision of Finance Minister Rameshwar Prasad Khanal dated Magh 28 (Nepali calendar), with the Ministry’s Revenue Secretary serving as coordinator. The ministry’s spokesperson, Tank Prasad Pandey, said the committee has already started work, indicating that early-stage consultations and technical reviews are now underway. At its core, the committee’s mandate is broader than routine “tax suggestions.” It has been asked to advise on the economic context and on what the budget should prioritize—meaning it can influence both the revenue strategy (how the state raises money) and the policy direction (where the state plans to intervene, reform, or incentivize). In practice, such committees often become the route through which competing interests—business groups, sector associations, experts, and government agencies—try to shape the budget narrative.

Rising US–Iran Tensions Push Middle East Toward a Dangerous Turning Point

Rising US–Iran Tensions Push Middle East Toward a Dangerous Turning Point Kathmandu — The long-standing hostility between the United States and Iran appears to be entering one of its most volatile phases in decades as geopolitical tensions escalate sharply at the beginning of 2026. What began as ideological rivalry rooted in historical mistrust has now evolved into a complex confrontation with global economic, military, and diplomatic consequences. Analysts warn that the situation is approaching a critical threshold where miscalculation by either side could trigger a wider regional conflict. The roots of the confrontation stretch back more than seventy years. The 1953 coup in Iran, widely associated with Western intervention, and the 1979 Islamic Revolution that reshaped Iran into an Islamic Republic laid the foundation for enduring hostility between Tehran and Washington. Since then, mutual suspicion has shaped foreign policy decisions on both sides, turning the relationship into one of the most persistent geopolitical rivalries of the modern era.
