This was followed by 'production' 193 times, 'manufacturing' 191 times, and 'agriculture' 150 times.

The Economic Survey is prepared by the Department of Economic Affairs, or DEA, of the Finance Ministry, under the guidance of the Chief Economic Adviser and approved by the Finance Minister.

"The government’s proactive policy interventions have been crucial in stabilising inflation. These measures include the strengthening of buffer stocks for essential food items, periodic open market releases, and efforts to ease imports during supply shortages. Despite these challenges, there are positive signs for inflation management in India," said the report.
