India’s industrial output grew 7.3% in June, the fastest since July 2024, official data showed. The manufacturing sector expanded 7.8%, electricity generation rose 10.6% partly due to a heatwave, and capital goods output jumped 14.2%. Consumer durables climbed 7.7% and non-durables 4.9%, suggesting demand recovery. Analysts caution that a below-normal monsoon and West Asia conflict threaten rural demand and fuel prices. Brickwork Ratings' Vikrant Chaturvedi said sustaining growth depends on resilient domestic investment. The data was released by the Ministry of Statistics on Tuesday.
