2023

(with data from July '23)


Our favourite month… when our nation was reborn. This picture above sends shivers down our collective spine, and indeed gives it steel.

July generated some interesting numbers again! GST stayed firm on the growth path and generated Rs.1.65L crores. Construction output grew at an eyewatering 8.2%, Sensex scaled 66.5k, Forex reserves crossed $600B, and the Services PMI crossed 62! And the mandarins were able to rein in the unemployment rate - which is a bit of a relief.

Stay tuned for the next month's data! Any guesses on what they might be?
