OECD Composite Leading Indicator · India

## What this measures

The OECD's composite leading indicator for India, amplitude-adjusted so 100 marks the long-run trend of economic activity. It is built from a country-specific basket of early-moving series chosen for their lead on activity.

## Why it matters

It is designed to turn six to nine months before the economy does, on a scale that compares across countries.

## How to read it

Slope first, level second. Rising and above 100: expansion gathering. Falling but above 100: expansion fading. Falling and below 100: slowdown. Rising from below 100: recovery.

## What it does not say

It does not forecast how fast the economy grows, and recent months are revised.
