The robust growth pace pushed back against concerns that aggressive tariff hikes by the US government would drive a sustained slowdown in the Indian economy, especially as goods producers are likely paying for more expensive fuel after the US tariffed major Russian oil producers and distributors. Output remained high for manufacturing (8.1% vs 8.5% in November), which is responsible for over 77% of total industrial production. Output also expanded for mining (6.8% vs 5.8%) and electricity generation (6.3% vs -1.5%). source: Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MOSPI)
