CII Survey Highlights Robust Business Confidence in India
A recent survey by the Confederation of Indian Industry reveals high business sentiment across the economy. Stronger demand and better profitability expectations are fueling this positive outlook. Steady investment conditions also contribute to the optimism.
Domestic Demand Shows Significant Growth
Nearly two-thirds of the 175 firms surveyed reported higher demand from July to September 2025. About 72% of these companies expect further improvement in the October to December 2025 quarter. This surge in domestic demand is a key driver of the current economic momentum.
Expectations for Monetary Policy and GST Impact
More than half of the surveyed firms anticipate a repo rate cut from the Reserve Bank of India. Such a move could stimulate additional economic activity. GST rate cuts have already helped lift consumption levels. The industry widely expects this growth trend to continue in the coming months.
The overall business environment appears favorable. Companies are reporting better financial performance and planning for future expansions. This survey underscores the resilience and potential of the Indian economy under current conditions.
