Report released Wednesday by HSBC India Services Purchasing Managers' Index highlighted service providers in India attribute strong performance to growth in demand & new business gains.
'Activity growth in India’s service sector accelerated in June... led by an increase in both domestic and international new orders,' noted an economist at HSBC.
The new orders sub-index, which tracks overall demand, rose last month and foreign demand expanded at a quicker rate from February. Output grew at the strongest pace since Dec.
The weak reading in October belies any hope for signs of recovery in India's economy given the services industry accounts for more than half of the GDP.
UCBs accounted for 1.8% of total industry credit in September 2025—down from 2.2% five yrs ago—showing that they are losing ground to faster PSU banks.
This is the game every nation is now learning to play. Some are finding new allies or seeing value among nations where they’d seen marginal interest. The starkest example is India & Europe.
