India's Manufacturing PMI Dips to 2-Year Low

India's manufacturing activity slowed down in December 2025.

The PMI, which measures the health of the manufacturing sector, fell to 55 from 56.6 in November.

This is the lowest it has been in two years, but it still shows that the sector is growing, just not as fast.

Companies are getting fewer orders from other countries, and they are being more careful about hiring people and buying supplies.

Prices for raw materials went up a little, but overall inflation is low.

Manufacturers are hopeful about next year, but they are worried about competition and uncertainty in the market.
