Indian manufacturing activity continues to improve in month of October

02 Nov 2020 Evaluate

Indian manufacturing activity continued to improve in the month of October, amid robust sales growth. As per the survey report, the Nikkei India Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) - a composite single-figure indicator of manufacturing performance - jumped to 58.9 in October as against 56.8 in September. Growth was led by the intermediate goods category, but there were also robust expansions in the consumer and investment goods sub-sectors.

The report further said that the ongoing relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions, better market conditions and improved demand helped them to secure new work in October. Moreover, the upturn in sales was the strongest since mid-2008. New export orders likewise rose at a quicker pace, one that was the most pronounced in close to six years. Besides, firms saw an increase in outstanding business. However, backlogs rose at the weakest pace in the current six-month period of accumulation.

On the price front, although input costs increased at a quicker pace than in September, the overall rate of inflation was modest by historical standards. There were mentions of higher base oil, metal and plastic prices; parallel to reductions in synthetic rubber and cotton fees. A few firms increased output charges, while the vast majority left their fees unchanged from September. As a result, the overall rate of charge inflation was negligible.
