The summarized Index of Eight Core Industries with 2004-05 base is given at the Annexure.
The Eight core industries have a combined weight of 37.90 per cent in the Index of Industrial Production (IIP). The combined Index was 139.5 in September 2012 with a growth rate of 5.1% compared to their 2.5% growth in September 2011. The modest growth in September, 2012 was on account of double digit growth witnessed in the production of Coal, Petroleum Refinery Products and Cement.
