| The Index of Industrial Production numbers for September 2009 revealed a growth rate of 9.1 per cent for the overall index and 9.3 per cent for the manufacturing sector, which comprises almost 80 per cent of the index. This was slower, but only slightly so, than the impressive 10.4 per cent notched up by the general index last month. This took the first half (April-September) growth rate of the index up to 6.5 per cent, appreciably better than the 5 per cent recorded in the corresponding period of 2008-09. The steady acceleration of the index over the past three months reinforces the perception that the economy is on a relatively robust, even if still moderate, recovery path. |
