Understanding Industrial Production — a simple guide

What it measures

The year-on-year change in the volume of output from factories, mines and utilities (electricity, gas, water).

How it is calculated

Industrial production index (volume, seasonally adjusted) this month ÷ the same month last year − 1, × 100.

Simple example

If the index is 155.7 now and was 150.0 a year ago, industrial production grew 3.8%.

▲ When it is high or rising

Rising output signals strong demand for goods.

▼ When it is low or falling

Falling output often signals weakening demand or supply problems.

Why it matters for the economy and markets

Industrial production is one of the earliest monthly signals of how the economy is doing and moves closely with the business cycle.

How to read it

It can swing sharply from month to month; look at the trend over several months. Negative readings for several months often accompany a slowdown in manufacturing.

What to look at alongside it

Business confidence, GDP growth and exports.

Key terms

IIP
Index of Industrial Production — India’s name for this measure.
Volume index
An index that tracks quantities produced, not prices.
