The economy has grown by 8.9 per cent for the April-July quarter of '06-07, the highest first-quarter growth rate since '00-01.

The growth rate has been spurred by the manufacturing sector, which has logged an 11.3 per cent rise in Q1 '06-07, according to the GDP data released by the Central Statistical Organisation. It was 10.7 per cent in the corresponding period of the last fiscal year. The GDP numbers come just weeks after the monthly IIP growth figures have touched 12.4 per cent.

The Government is focusing on infrastructural development to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) and India is already building more highways than any other country in the world.

• The booming stock market in the last three years has seen the value of foreign portfolio investments growing by about 129 per cent to US$ 119 billion; a total of 992 foreign institutional investments (FIIs) from 39 countries have invested US$ 52 billion in domestic shares.

• Manufacturing

India, according to McKinsey Research, has all the required skills in process, product, and capital engineering, thanks to its long manufacturing history and higher-education system. Manufacturers from across the world are thus setting up shop in India.

India's vast domestic market and relatively low-cost workers with advanced technical skills will make it a manufacturing powerhouse within 5-10 years. Already, more and more multinationals are setting up operations in India: ABB, Honeywell and Siemens in electrical and electronic products; Cummins, DaimlerChrysler, and Toyota in auto components and engineering; and Degussa as well as Rohm and Hass in specialty chemicals. All these operate in skill-intensive industries requiring advanced technical expertise--areas in which India is likely to become a primary sourcing and manufacturing base.

• Manufacturing output

India's manufacturing output increased 11.6 per cent in January 2007 from a year earlier, according to a report by the Central Statistical Organisation. Going by the report, production at factories, utilities and mines increased 10.9 per cent, following the revised 12.5 per cent gain in December 2006, going beyond analysts' expectations of a rise of 10.1 per cent.

The Index of Industrial Production (IIP) in December 2006 went up 11.1 per cent over the corresponding month of the previous year, according to Government data. The manufacturing sector, which has an almost 80 per cent weightage in the Index, went up by 11.9 per cent.

Economic Survey 2006-07 estimates for manufacturing sector:

Impressive growth in industrial sector is propelled by the robust growth in the manufacturing sector which continues unabated.

Year-on-year industrial growth of 10.6 per cent in the first nine months of 2006-07 was the highest recorded since 1995-96; growth of the manufacturing sector was in double digits.

The Eleventh Plan (2007-12) target of 10 per cent annual industrial growth appears achievable.
