The Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation has released the Quick Estimates of the Index of Industrial Production (IIP) for July 2025. Overall industrial output registered a year-on-year growth of 3.5 percent, with a marked recovery in manufacturing activity. The manufacturing sector expanded by 5.4 percent, driving the positive momentum, while mining contracted by 7.2 percent and electricity output grew marginally by 0.6 percent.
Within manufacturing, industries such as pharmaceuticals, motor vehicles, and food products recorded robust growth, whereas sectors linked to basic metals and mining saw weaker performance. Use-based classification reveals growth in consumer durables and infrastructure-related goods, indicating resilient domestic demand despite uneven performance in primary sectors.
The July data builds on recent months of moderate industrial recovery, highlighting manufacturingβs central role in sustaining momentum even amid challenges in resource extraction and energy supply. The IIP release remains a key indicator for fiscal and policy planning, feeding into GDP estimates and industrial strategy.
