In September 2025, India’s Infrastructure Output, measured by the Index of Eight Core Industries (ICI), registered a growth rate of 3% year-on-year. This indicates moderate expansion in the infrastructure sector, driven by positive growth in key areas such as steel, cement, electricity, and fertilizers. Although the growth rate was lower than August’s revised figure of 6.5%, it still reflects ongoing momentum in core industrial activity, contributing to the overall economic stability and infrastructural development of the country.
