New Delhi: The index of industrial production (IIP) in India fell to 3.7 percent in June from the three-month high of 5.2 percent in May 2023 mainly due to poor rise in manufacturing output, which rose by 3 percent compared to 5.8 percent in May, as per government data.

According to data released by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation on Friday, in April, the IIP stood at 4.2 percent. India's IIP had declined to its lowest level in five months at 1.1 percent in March. However, the figure has been revised to 1.7 percent.
