Nifty India Manufacturing Index News and Updates
Several key economic indicators and market factors have influenced the Nifty Manufacturing index recently.
A major positive development was the release of the HSBC India Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) on 2nd June 2025. The PMI for May stood at a strong 57.6, indicating robust expansion in the manufacturing sector. This growth was reportedly powered by solid domestic and overseas demand, leading to a record increase in hiring by manufacturing firms. Such strong macroeconomic data provides a positive outlook for the companies within the index.
On the market front, while the broader indices experienced some selling pressure in early June due to foreign capital outflows and caution ahead of the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) upcoming monetary policy meeting, the manufacturing sector remains in focus. Investors are keenly watching for policy signals that could further boost domestic production. For those looking to invest in this theme, a Nifty India Manufacturing Index Fund can offer diversified exposure to the sector's key players.
