The report highlights strong momentum in high-end consumer spending, which is expected to continue supporting the earnings outlook for sectors such as hotels and hospitality, jewellery, alcoholic beverages, and select automobiles.

In the first quarter, the economy witnessed a moderation in the first quarter of financial year 2025 (1QFY25), led by domestic factors, but growth has picked up from 3QFY25.
