IIP Growth: Mining sees 9.8 per cent growth in December 2022, electricity production witnesses a 10.4 per cent rise

IIP Data For December 2022: India’s industrial production in December 2023 expanded 4.3 per cent, according to the latest IIP data released on Friday. The manufacturing sector output grew 2.6 per cent during the month.

According to the latest data released by the National Statistical Office (NSO) on Friday, mining saw a growth of 9.8 per cent in December 2022 and the electricity production witnessed a rise of 10.4 per cent.

During April-December 2022, the overall industrial output based on the Index of Industrial Production (IIP) grew 5.4 per cent. During the period, mining saw an expansion of 5.4 per cent and electricity witnessed 9.9 per cent growth.

Aditi Nayar, chief economist and head (research & outreach) at ICRA, said, “The IIP growth printed at 4.3 per cent in December 2022, in line with our forecast, displaying a step up from the anemic average rise in the previous two months, the individual performances of which were besieged by base effects related to a shift in the festive calendar."

She added that the disaggregated use-based data remains decidedly uneven, ranging from contractions in intermediate goods and consumer durables to a robust 7-9 per cent expansion for the remaining four categories.

“The YoY growth of most available high frequency indicators improved in January 2023 relative to December 2022, partly reflecting a favourable base owing to the onset of the third wave of Covid-19 witnessed in January 2022, based on which we expect the overall IIP growth to rise to 5-7 per cent in the month," Nayar said.

She also said that going forward, the YoY growth in the IIP is likely to improve in the ongoing quarter (+2.4 per cent YoY in Q3 FY2023), partly boosted by the typical year-end push in volumes to achieve targets as well as a low base of the third wave of Covid-19. However, we remain watchful of the impact of a slowdown in external demand and the consequent decline in merchandise exports on the performance of the manufacturing sector.

The FDA staff made the conclusion in briefing documents ahead of a meeting on Thursday when a panel of external advisors to the agency will discuss whether to recommend full approval of the RSV shot . The advisors will vote on whether Pfizer's late-stage clinical trial data on the vaccine supports its safety and efficacy. The FDA typically follows the advice of its advisory committees, but is not required to do so. The agency is slated to make a decision on whether to clear the shot in August before RSV season in the fall. If approved, Pfizer's jab would become the world's first vaccine that protects infants against RSV.  RSV usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms. But infants and older ad

[ad_1] LONDON: Casemiro scored twice as Manchester United turned on the style to beat 10-man Reading 3-1 and reach the FA Cup fifth round on Saturday as Tottenham forward Son Heung-min ended his recent goal drought. On a day lacking major shocks, there were wins for Premier League strugglers Leeds, Leicester and Southampton but Fulham were held by Championship side Sunderland. United – fourth in the Premier League and within touching distance of a place in the League Cup final – produced more compelling evidence they are back on track under new manager Erik ten Hag . The home side took the lead at Old Trafford in the 54th minute when Anthony produced a defence-splitting pass to find Brazil teammate Casemiro, who lifted the ball over goalkeeper Joe Lumley. Four minutes later United were two up, when Casemiro let fly with a stunning strike from outside the box to find the bottom corner. With the home side brimming with confidence, substitute Fred produced an audacious flic
