India service sector PMI plummets in January

Decline trumped improvement in manufacturing PMI.

Here's more from BBVA:

The service sector expanded at a slower pace in February, with the HSBC service sector PMI falling to 54.2 from 57.5 in January, driven by a decline in new business flows (55.4 vs 58.3 in January). Weakening services sector activity more than offset a pick up in manufacturing PMI for February (54.2 vs 53.2), as released last week. Indian equity shares were up today, as the weak macro-backdrop bolsters expectations of a 25bps repo rate cut by the RBI at its next meeting on March 19, following January’s 25bp cut. We expect easier monetary policy coupled with continued policy efforts in order to support a gradual recovery in economic growth, following the announcement last Thursday that Q4 GDP had fallen to a decade-low of 4.5%.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
