However, its enormous economic potential is hampered by deep-rooted structural problems that have long impacted GDP growth and have created constant inflationary pressures. Major problems include poor physical and social infrastructures, corruption, bureaucracy, rigid labor laws, the decline in taxation and an increase in the limitations of supply resources, especially in the energy sector, but also in the food sector. In the World Economic Forum 's Global Competitiveness Report for 2016-2017, India ranked 40th out of 137 worldwide countries (Global Competitiveness Index, 2017).
