MoSPI reports India’s unemployment rate falls to 4.7% in November 2025
The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) released data showing that India’s unemployment rate declined to 4.7% in November 2025, compared to previous months.[1] The figures are based on the Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS), which tracks labour market trends in urban and rural areas.[1] The data indicate an improvement in employment conditions, with gains noted in both self-employment and regular wage categories.[1] Rural unemployment showed a marginal decrease, helped by agricultural and construction activities.[1] Urban unemployment also eased slightly, supported by services and manufacturing.[1] The government has linked this trend to ongoing reforms and infrastructure spending.[1] Economists, however, cautioned that underemployment and labour force participation rates must also be examined.[1]
