The IIP growth rate for the month of July 2025 stands at 3.5% over 1.5% (Quick Estimate) in the month of June 2025, marking strong growth of India’s industrial sector, said Hemant Jain, President, PHDCCI, in a press statement issued here today.

This growth was supported by the contribution of the manufacturing sector at 5.4% in July 2025, he added.

Within the manufacturing sector, it is appreciable, that for the month of July 2025 that manufacture of wood and products of wood and cork (17.3%), electrical equipment (15.9%), basic metals (12.7%), and other transport equipment (11.5%) recorded double digit growth, said Jain.

Strong growth in Capital goods at 5%, Intermediate goods at 5.8%, Consumer durables at 7.7% and Infrastructure/ construction goods at 11.9% in July 2025 are lending a supporting hand to the steady growth of India's IIP, he added.

With the government's strong efforts to "Make in India" and a conducive policy environment, the industrial sector is expected to continue its robust development path despite tariff related uncertainties, bolstering India towards becoming a global manufacturing hub, said Jain.
