BENGALURU : Growth in India's dominant services industry lost some steam in August but overall conditions remained strong despite elevated inflationary pressures, according to a business survey that showed exports were at a record high on robust foreign demand.
Tuesday's findings, coupled with a sister survey on Friday which found factory growth expanded at its fastest pace in three months, suggest Asia's third-largest economy will be the fastest-growing major country despite slowing global growth.
The S&P Global India services Purchasing Managers' Index fell to 60.1 in August from 62.3 in July, lower than the Reuters poll expectation of 61.0.
