Answer- B

The forecast is based on recovery in consumption demand in both rural and urban areas. The Indian economy grew 7.2 per cent in 2022-23. In an update to its Asian Development Outlook (ADO), ADB lowered its inflation projection for current fiscal year (FY24) at 4.9 per cent.

Hence, option 'B' is correct.
