Strong momentum The index has now remained above the 50-point threshold for over four years.

- Rhik Kundu

India's service sector saw its strongest growth in 15 years in August, driven by a surge in demand and new business, according to a private survey released on Wednesday.

The HSBC India Services Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI), compiled by S&P Global, climbed to 62.9 in August, up from 60.5 in July and 60.4 in June. This marks the fastest growth since June 2010. The index has now remained above the 50-point threshold, which separates growth from contraction, for over four years, highlighting the sector's sustained momentum.

The rise in international sales was the third-strongest since the series began in 2014. This robust demand led to services firms hiring more workers, although outstanding business only rose marginally.

Businesses mustn't wait for a global climate consensus

This year’s United Nations climate summit in Belém, Brazil, ended last week. Countries made promises on paper and avoided hard decisions. Having gathered nearly 200 nations to chart out climate action, CoP-30 produced a ‘Belém Political Package’ that deferred questions rather than answer them. We should not pretend that this is progress.
