Will the HSBC India Manufacturing PMI for October 2026, as released on November 2, 2026, be greater than 55.0?
60%chance, per Kāla
Why
September’s PMI was 55.1, but the forecast for Q4 2026 from Trading Economics is around 54.0, suggesting a modest slowdown. While recent improvements in orders and output could keep the index near the 55‑point threshold, the downward forecast and recent volatility make a reading above 55 less likely than not.
