The increase in industrial production was driven by strong growth in the manufacturing sector, which accounts for the bulk of industrial activity in Türkiye.

The manufacturing index was supported by increased production of machinery and equipment, motor vehicles, and chemicals.

The decrease in industrial production on a monthly basis was due to a decline in the manufacturing sector.
