There are clear signs of an upturn in the Indian economy, which is expected to expand by 6.5 percent in the year to March 2010, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said on Sunday.

India's economic growth slowed to 6.7 percent in the 2008/09 fiscal year through March after three straight years of at least 9 percent, and government officials have said growth in the current year is on track for roughly 6.5 percent.
