India's industrial production growth rate increased marginally from 2.7% for the month of February to 3% for the month of March 2025. Official figures on this were made public on Monday. The growth rate in March on a year-on-year basis was also less than 5.5 percent for the corresponding month of the previous financial year. The reason for this was the weak showing by the manufacturing, mining, and power sectors.
