India's September PMI shows strong expansion, though growth moderates across manufacturing and services sectors overall.

• Composite output index fell to 61.9, below August's 63.2, yet remains sharply expansionary by historical.
• Manufacturing PMI slipped to 58.5, services also slowed, but both stay well above the 50 threshold.
• Employment growth slowed, input costs cooled, and selling price hikes weakened; confidence rose to a seven‑month high.
