State of the Economy
The global economy is confronting a fragile geopolitical environment and continuing trade-related uncertainties. Nevertheless, the domestic economy has demonstrated notable resilience to the ongoing global headwinds, characterised by buoyant domestic demand, and rising manufacturing and services activity. The south-west monsoon picked up in July after recording a deficit in June. While headline CPI inflation rose fractionally, reflecting food inflation; core inflation remained stable. Liquidity conditions eased, supporting credit growth and ongoing investment activity. Foreign capital inflows rebounded, reinforcing the external sector.
