India's 8 Core Industries Post 1.7% Growth In June
New Delhi: India's core industries comprising eight sectors reported 1.7 per cent growth in June 2025, down from 5 per cent in the same month of 2024, data released on Monday by Ministry of Commerce and Industry showed. On a month-on-month basis, the expansion in June is relatively up, when these key sectors grew by 1.2 per cent. Commerce ministry data showed the production of steel, cement and refinery products recorded positive growth in June 2025. The Index of Eight Core Industries (ICI) measures the combined and individual performance of production of eight core industries -- Coal, Crude Oil, Natural Gas, Refinery Products, Fertilizers, Steel, Cement and Electricity. The Eight Core Industries comprise 40.27 per cent of the weight of items included in the Index of Industrial Production (IIP). The cumulative growth rate of ICI during April to June, 2025-26 is 1.3 per cent (provisional) as compared to the corresponding period of last year. The summary of the Index of Eight Core Industries is given below: Coal - Coal production (weight: 10.33 per cent) declined by 6.8 per cent in June, 2025 over June, 2024. Its cumulative index declined by 0.3 per cent during April to June, 2025-26 over corresponding period of the previous year. Crude Oil - Crude Oil production (weight: 8.98 per cent) declined by 1.2 per cent in June, 2025 over June, 2024. Its cumulative index declined by 2.0 per cent during April to June, 2025-26 over corresponding period of the previous year. Natural Gas - Natural Gas production (weight: 6.88 per cent) declined by 2.8 per cent in June, 2025 over June, 2024. Its cumulative index declined by 2.5 per cent during April to June, 2025-26 over corresponding period of the previous year. Petroleum Refinery Products - Petroleum Refinery production (weight: 28.04 per cent) increased by 3.4 per cent in June, 2025 over June, 2024. Its cumulative index remained constant during April to June, 2025-26 over corresponding period of the previous year. Fertilizers - Fertilizer production (weight: 2.63 per cent) declined by 1.2 per cent in June, 2025 over June, 2024. Its cumulative index declined by 3.8 per cent during April to June, 2025-26 over corresponding period of the previous year. Steel - Steel production (weight: 17.92 per cent) increased by 9.3 per cent in June, 2025 over June, 2024. Its cumulative index increased by 7.0 per cent during April to June, 2025-26 over corresponding period of the previous year. Cement - Cement production (weight: 5.37 per cent) increased by 9.2 per cent in June, 2025 over June, 2024. Its cumulative index increased by 8.4 per cent during April to June, 2025-26 over corresponding period of the previous year. Electricity - Electricity generation (weight: 19.85 per cent) declined by 2.8 per cent in June, 2025 over June, 2024. Its cumulative index declined by 2.0 per cent during April to June, 2025-26 over corresponding period of the previous year. "Although the year-on-year (YoY) growth in core output improved slightly to 1.7 per cent in June 2025 from 1.2 per cent in May 2025, it remained decidedly tepid, with as many as five of the eight sectors recording a contraction in their output in the month," said Aditi Nayar, Chief Economist, ICRA Ltd. "While an elevated base weighed upon coal output, excess rains in the latter half of June 2025 impacted electricity generation." "Encouragingly, the output of the cement and steel sectors rose by a robust 9.2-9.3 per cent in June 2025, although this was supported by a favourable base in the case of the former. The growth in volumes of these segments has been quite healthy in Q1 FY2026, which implies that the construction sector is poised to record a robust GVA growth in the quarter. Given the subdued growth in core output, ICRA expects the IIP growth to print at 1.5-2.5 per cent in June 2025," added Nayar. Release of the index for July, 2025 will be on Wednesday, August 20, 2025.

Continuation of the customs adjustment process initiated by the Tax Authority
BOGOTA, Colombia, June 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ecopetrol S.A. (BVC: ECOPETROL; NYSE: EC, the "Company" or "Ecopetrol" and together with its subsidiaries, the "Ecopetrol Group") informs that on May 29, 2025, the Dirección de Impuestos y Aduanas Nacionales (the "Tax Authority") notified Refinería de Cartagena S.A.S. (the "Refinery") of two resolutions mandating the Refinery to conduct correction assessments in relation to customs import declarations for gasoline. In accordance with the Tax Authority's interpretation of the law, the Refinery owed approximately COP 1.0 trillion, plus estimated interests to date of COP 2.1 trillion, for the import of gasoline between 2022 and 2024. On June 26, 2025, the Refinery filed the corresponding motions for reconsideration against the aforementioned customs correction assessments. The official assessments notified by the Tax Authority to the Refinery reflect the continued differences in regulatory interpretation between the Tax Authority and the Ecopetrol Group—an issue that the Refinery has detailed in its motions for reconsideration. Considering that the Tax Authority has decided to apply its regulatory interpretation, Ecopetrol and the Refinery have been making VAT payments on gasoline and diesel imports at the 19% rate since January 2025. It is important to note that these VAT payments do not affect Ecopetrol's and the Refinery's rights to challenge the Tax Authority's interpretation at the appropriate time and before the relevant authorities. Ecopetrol and the Refinery reaffirm their commitment to fully comply with their customs and tax obligations and will respect the decisions issued in this matter by the competent authorities, as stated on May 6, 2025 in a communication published through this medium. Ecopetrol is the largest company in Colombia and one of the main integrated energy companies in the American continent, with more than 19,000 employees. In Colombia, it is responsible for more than 60% of the hydrocarbon production of most transportation, logistics, and hydrocarbon refining systems, and it holds leading positions in the petrochemicals and gas distribution segments. With the acquisition of 51.4% of ISA's shares, the Company participates in energy transmission, the management of real-time systems (XM), and the Barranquilla - Cartagena coastal highway concession. At the international level, Ecopetrol has a stake in strategic basins in the American continent, with Drilling and Exploration operations in the United States (Permian basin and the Gulf of Mexico), Brazil, and Mexico, and, through ISA and its subsidiaries, Ecopetrol holds leading positions in the power transmission business in Brazil, Chile, Peru, and Bolivia, road concessions in Chile, and the telecommunications sector.

Its cumulative index increased by 5.2 per cent during April to March, 2024-25 over the corresponding period of the previous year. Aditi Nayar, Chief Economist, Head - Research and Outreach, ICRA Ltd, 'The performance of the core sector deteriorated significantly in April 2025, with the YoY growth slumping to an 8-month low of 0.5 per cent in the month from the upward revised 4.6 per cent in March 2025. The deceleration was broad-based, led by six of the eight sectors barring coal and natural gas.' 'Based on the tepid rise in the core sector and the performance of the other available high-frequency indicators, ICRA expects the IIP growth to moderate sharply to 1.0 per cent in April 2025. The healthy growth in non-oil exports may provide an upside, unless the same represents round-tripping of some imports,' Nayar added. (ANI)
