The National Statistical Office (NSO) on Friday said the Indian economy is projected to grow at 7 per cent in 2022-23, as against 8.7 per cent in the previous fiscal, mainly due to poor performance of the manufacturing sector.

Real GDP growth during 2022-23 is estimated at 7.0 per cent as compared to 8.7 per cent in 2021-22.
Manufacturing sector output is estimated to decline by 1.6 per cent as against a growth of 9.9 per cent in FY22.
