India's Manufacturing Sector Expands, Reaching 14-Month High
India's factories are doing really well!
In June, they made more stuff than they have in over a year, thanks to lots of orders and demand.
This led to companies hiring more people than ever before.
They also got a lot of new orders from other countries.
Even though it cost more to make things, like freight, labor and metals, businesses were able to charge customers a bit more.
The future looks good, but some companies are a bit worried about competition, rising costs, and what people might want to buy.
India's manufacturing sector reached a 14-month high in June, with a PMI of 58.4.
Output and new orders expanded, driven by strong end-demand.
Employment rose at a record pace, with firms increasing hiring.
Input prices moderated, but firms passed on costs due to demand.
New export orders saw a substantial rise, particularly from international markets.
