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. The figures are based on the Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS), which tracks labour market trends in urban and rural areas. The data indicate an improvement in employment conditions, with gains noted in both self-employment and regular wage categories. Rural unemployment showed a marginal decrease, helped by agricultural and construction activities. Urban unemployment also eased slightly, supported by services and manufacturing. The government has linked this trend to ongoing reforms and infrastructure spending. Economists, however, cautioned that underemployment and labour force participation rates must also be examined.
