NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India's annual infrastructure output growth slowed to 3.2 percent in July, mainly dragged down by a slowdown in production of electricity, cement and fertilizer, government data showed on Wednesday.
The output expanded 5.2 percent from a year earlier in June.
For the period between April and July, the output growth came in at 4.9 percent.
Cement production grew 1.4 percent year-on-year in July, slower than a 10.3 percent rise a month ago.
