About Gross Domestic Product QoQ — India
DEFINITION
India's Gross Domestic Product QoQ contracted by -0.500000% in Q2 2026, missing the prior quarter's 0.700000% growth. This marks a sharp reversal from Q1 2026's expansion, signaling a notable economic slowdown. Market focus will remain on upcoming policy moves as growth momentum weakens. Updated 9/1/26
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
Aggregate growth figures anchor cyclical positioning across asset classes and inform fiscal and monetary policy debate. The release is more useful as part of a longer-run signal than as a single-print catalyst. Released monthly.
WHAT CHANGED THIS MONTH
Latest reading (Apr 2026): actual -0.5 %. Prior reading (Jan 2026): 0.7 %. Before that (Oct 2025): -1.3 %.
WHAT'S NEXT
Sigmacast's 1-month forecast points to a materially higher reading versus the latest print, with the 3-month outlook reinforcing that direction. Both horizons are aligned bearish for this indicator, suggesting a consistent trend signal. Trend-driven dynamics are the primary tailwind in the current projection. This indicator correlates most strongly with XAU/USD (Bearish XAU, r=-0.83) — a useful reference for commodities-focused traders.
