Sri Lanka economy growing by 1.6% and inflation falling

The Sri Lankan economy expanded 1.6 percent in the third quarter of 2023 compared to a year earlier, marking the first growth in a year and a half.

Inflation has moderated notably, and other economic indicators for manufacturing and services point to a broadening recovery.

Sri Lanka’s key inflation rate fell to 5.9% in February from 6.4% in January, the statistics department said on Thursday.

Economic growth is forecasted to accelerate over the coming year.
