Highlights

Sales

  • Sales of 1,647 manufacturing companies recorded extraordinarily high growth (y-o-y) of 75.0 per cent in Q1:2021-22, which was aided by very low base {(-) 41.1 per cent decline in Q1:2020-21}, reflecting the COVID-19 pandemic impact on operations; all the major sectors recorded high growth during the quarter (Table 2A and Table 5A).

  • Sales of non-IT services companies also surged (y-o-y) in Q1:2021-22, but the revenues of telecom companies within this group declined (Table 2A and Table 5A).

Expenditure
