India's eight core infrastructure sectors grew 4% in January 2026, down from 4.7% in December and 5.1% a year earlier. The decline was driven by a 5.8% drop in crude oil production and a 5% fall in natural gas output, indicating ongoing weakness in energy sectors. This slowdown may impact overall industrial production sentiment.
