      Question

      According to estimates by ICRA regarding industrial

      production, what level of Index of Industrial Production (IIP) growth was expected for January?
      A 4.3% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 5.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 6.4% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7.1% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 7.8% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ICRA projected that IIP growth would ease to around 5.5 percent in January, reflecting the slowdown observed in core sector performance. This projection represents a decline from 7.8 percent IIP growth recorded in December. The expectation of lower IIP growth stems from weakening momentum in key infrastructure sectors such as crude oil, natural gas and refinery products. Core sectors carry around 40 percent weight in the IIP index, so their performance directly affects industrial output. Despite this moderation, non-core industries were expected to outperform core sectors, continuing the trend observed during the third quarter of FY2026.
