汇丰银行印度服务业采购经理人指数从初步估计的61.7和一个月前的61.2下调至2024年4月的60.8。这是服务业活动连续第33个月增长，因为新业务和产出的增长仍然强劲，是14年来最快的。随着亚洲、非洲、欧洲、美洲和中东几个国家的销售额不断增长，新出口订单增长至近十年来的第二快。与此同时，服务提供商以比3月份更温和的边际速度增加了员工。在价格方面，由于劳动力和运营成本增加，投入品价格继续上涨。与此同时，尽管通货膨胀从3月份接近7年的高点有所缓解，并接近其长期趋势，但随着服务提供商将部分额外成本负担转嫁给客户，产出价格攀升。最后，由于对需求条件保持有利的希望，商业情绪改善至三个月高点。
The HSBC India Services PMI was revised lower to 60.8 in April 2024 from 61.7 in the preliminary estimates and after a final 61.2 a month earlier. It was the 33rd straight month of growth in services activity, as growth of new business and output remained sharp and among the fastest in 14 years. New export orders grew to the second-fastest in a near-ten-year, with rising sales from several countries in Asia, Africa, Europe, the Americas, and the Middle East. Meantime, service providers took on extra staff at a marginal pace that was softer than that in March. On prices, input prices continued to rise due to higher labor and operating costs. Meanwhile, output prices climbed as service providers passed part of their additional cost burdens through to clients, despite the inflation eased from March's near seven-year high and was close to its long-run trend. Lastly, business sentiment improved to a three-month high amid hopes that demand conditions remained favorable.
