The error is in part A of the sentence.
Since a comparison is drawn between Indian economy and other major economies, therefore ‘comparative degree of adjective’ must be used.
‘fast’ must be replaced with ‘faster’.
Correct sentence- ‘India’s economy grew at a faster pace than most major nations in 2018, and this year, it’s poised to overtake the UK to become the world’s fifth-biggest.’
