GDP growth slips to 4.5 %, affects hosiery industry
Ludhiana (Punjab), Dec 01 (ANI): GDP growth of India slipped to 4.5 % in the 2nd quarter of FY20. It marked the slowest expansion in 26 quarters. It was mainly on account of weak manufacturing and a drop in exports due to a global slowdown. The data also affected the hosiery industry.
