Industrial production grows 3.2% in October: Govt data

India's industrial production rose 3.2 per cent in October, according to official data released on Friday.

During April-October this year, the IIP grew 20 per cent against a 17.3 per cent contraction in the same period last year. Industrial production has been hit due to the coronavirus pandemic since March last year when it had contracted 18.7 per cent.
