&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;It is the steepest contraction in the last six months&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The output of eight core sectors declined by 4.6% in February, the steepest contraction in the last six months, which, experts said, could drag the overall industrial production in the month into the negative territory.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;All the key segments, including coal, crude oil, natural gas, and refinery products, witnessed a decline in production, according to the official data released on Wednesday.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The growth rate of the eight infrastructure sectors &amp;mdash; coal, crude oil, natural gas, refinery products, fertilizers, steel, cement and electricity &amp;mdash; stood at 6.4% in February 2020.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Last time in August 2020, the sectors had recorded a negative growth of 6.9%. In January this year, the segments have registered a positive growth of 0.9%.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to the data, coal production declined by 4.4%, crude oil by 3.2%, natural gas by 1%, refinery products by a steep 10.9%, fertilizers by 3.7%, steel by 1.8%, cement by 5.5% and electricity by 0.2% in February.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to the Commerce and Industry Ministry data, during April-February 2020-21, the eight sectors&amp;rsquo; growth declined by 8.3% as compared to (+) 1.3% in same period of the previous fiscal.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Modest growth&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Commenting on the figures, ICRA Ltd Principal Economist Aditi Nayar said that given the sharp base effect, the core sector output was expected to expand by 9-11% in March 2021, which should result in a modest growth of around 2% in Q4 FY2021.&lt;/p&gt;
