India’s industrial output in May grew at 3.2 per cent over the same month last year but declined as compared to rise of 4.9 per cent in April mainly on account of a decline in manufacturing, official data showed on Thursday.
The monthly Index of Industrial Production (IIP) is released by the Central Statistics Office (CSO).
