IIP

The IIP growth for September 2025 stood at 4 per cent, unchanged from August, supported by growth in the manufacturing sector

In the present series of IIP, the index is compiled based on data received from a fixed panel of factories selected in the base year to represent industrial activity across various sectors

IIP growth rose to 3.5% in July from 1.5% in June, driven by manufacturing, construction and consumer durables, though mining remained weak and electricity showed modest gains

India's IIP rose 1.5% in June 2025, driven by a 3.9% growth in manufacturing, even as mining and electricity output declined

Refinery products saw positive growth of 3.4 per cent. Similarly, the steel and cement sectors recorded growth of 9.3 per cent and 9.2 per cent, respectively

Wood and its products recorded a higher production level by 3.7 per cent in the first two months of FY 26 over the corresponding period of 2011-12 but it was below the 2019-20 level

Manufacturing, which carries the largest weight in the IIP, rose 2.6% in May 2025

The expected revision will not only change the base year but also include new data sources, which should help make these indices more robust

Industrial output slowed in April as mining contracted and electricity growth eased; capital goods saw robust growth while consumer non-durables remained weak

Aditi Nayar, chief economist, ICRA Ratings, said growth in Q4 FY25 is anticipated to fall short of the level implicit in the NSO's second advance estimate for FY25

Besides, the new IIP series will be chain-based, as the annual survey of industries (ASI) data is available to adjust the weights of different industries

India's Index of Industrial Production grew by 5 per cent in April 2024, an official statement said. The data released by the National Statistical Office (NSO) showed that the manufacturing sector's output grew 3.9 per cent in April 2024 against 5.5 per cent in the year-ago month. In April this year, mining production rose 6.7 per cent and power output increased 10.2 per cent.

The IIP had grown by 1.9 per cent in March 2023

Core industries contributing to this growth, include coal, natural gas, cement, steel, crude oil, electricity, and refinery products which make up 40.27% of India IIP
