The ministry said intermediate goods, primary goods and capital goods were the largest contributors to overall industrial production growth during June.
The data release also marks a significant revision in the methodology used to compile the industrial output index. MoSPI said it has adopted the Output Producer Price Index (Output PPI) as the deflator for the new IIP series with the base year of 2022-23, replacing the Wholesale Price Index (WPI).
The switch affects 234 of the 463 item groups in the IIP basket, accounting for 36.02% of the overall index weight. The ministry said the revised PPI-based series supersedes the earlier WPI-based IIP 2022-23 series that was released on June 1.
According to MoSPI, the Output PPI offers a more detailed price structure and improves the measurement of real output for items where production data is reported in value terms. The ministry said the change is also aligned with international best practices and recommendations made by the Technical Advisory Committee on the base revision of the IIP.
