Directions (1-5): read the following passage to answer the given questions based on it. Some words/ phrases are printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.

India’s manufacturing growth fell to its lowest in more than two years in September, 2011, reinforcing fears that an extended period of high policy rates is hurting growth, according to a closely watched index.

The HSBC India Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI), based on a survey of over 500 companies, fell to 50.4 from 52.6 in August and 53.6 in July. It was the lowest since March 2009. when the reading was below 50. indicating contraction. September’s index also recorded the biggest one-month fall since November 2008.

The sub index for new orders. which reflects future output, declined for the sixtli successive month, while xport orders full for it Liar(‘ month on the back of weakness in global economy.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) last week indicated it was not done yet with monetary policy tightening as inflation was still high. The bank has already raised rates 12 times since March 2010 to tame inflation, which is at a 13-month high of 9.78%. Economists expect the RBI to raise rates one more time but warn that targeted growth will be hard to achieve if the slump continues. “This• (fall in PMI) was driven by weaker orders. with export orders still contracting due to the weaker global economic conditions.- HSBC said in a press release quoting its chief economist for India &ASEAN. PMI is considered a fairly good indicator of manufacturing activity the world over. but in case of India, the large contribution of the unorganised sector yields a low correlation with industrial growth.

However, the Index for Industrial Production (IIP) has been showing a weakening trend. having slipped to a 21- month low of 3.3 % in July. The core sector. which consists of eight infrastructure industries and has a combined weight of 37.9% in the IIP. also grew at only 3.5% in August.

The PMI data is in line with the suffering manufacturing activity in India as per other estimates. Producers are seeing that demand conditions are softening and the outlook is uncertain, therefore they are producing less. Employment in the manufacturing sector declined for the second consecutive month, indicating it too was under pressure. This could be attributed to lower requirement of staff and rise in resignations as higher wage requests go unfulfilled, the HSBC statement said.

On the inflation front, input prices rose at an 11 -month low rate, but despite signs of softening, they still remain at historically high levels. While decelerating slightly, the readings for input and output prices suggest that inflation pressures remain firmly in place.Most economists feel the RBI is close to the end of its rate hike cycle. Even the weekly Wholesale Price Index (WPI) estimates have started showing signs of softening. having fallen more than one percentage point.
