India’s manufacturing sector saw its slowest pace of activity expansion in nearly five years in July, according to HSBC India Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) data released on Monday.

However, the manufacturing activity remained in expansion territory with the seasonally adjusted HSBC India Manufacturing PMI declining to 53.5 in July from 54.2 in June, its lowest reading since August 2021. The index stayed above the 50 threshold that distinguishes expansion from contraction, signalling that manufacturing conditions continued to improve.
