The Services and Infrastructure sector plays a pivotal role in the economic development. Considering the increasing importance of this sector, the Reserve Bank of India had initiated pilot survey to assess the business sentiments in Services and Infrastructure Sector. The Reserve Bank of India has now launched the 9th pilot round of the Services and Infrastructure Outlook Survey which seeks assessment of the business situation for the current quarter (April-June 2016, i.e. Q1:2016-17) from the services and infrastructure companies in India, and their perceptions for the ensuing quarter (July-September 2016, i.e. Q2:2016-17).
