Kazakhstan experienced a significant rise in industrial production, which increased by 8.2% year-on-year in November 2025. This marks the most rapid growth in three months and is an acceleration from the 7.1% increase observed in October. The primary driver of this upsurge was a notable improvement in manufacturing output, which grew by 6.4% compared to the modest 2.2% growth in the previous month. Meanwhile, the production in electricity, gas, steam, hot water, and air conditioning supply remained stable, showing a 3.2% growth. In contrast, the rate of growth in mining and quarrying slowed down to 10.8% from 12.5%, and the decline in water supply, waste management, and pollution control activities worsened, falling by 6.9% compared to the previous drop of 3.8%. On a month-on-month basis, industrial output saw a rebound of 7.3% in November, following a 0.6% decrease in October. For the first eleven months of the year, industrial production showed a 7.4% increase compared to the same period the previous year.
