Sri Lanka’s gross domestic product expanded in the third quarter of 2025, with agriculture growing by 3.6 percent, manufacturing increasing by 8.1 percent, and services rising by 3.5 percent, according to data released by the state statistics office.
The Central Bank of Sri Lanka provided economic stability throughout 2025, offering a strong foundation for businesses to operate effectively.
Although the rupee has begun to weaken, lower imports of intermediate goods have contributed to growth in certain manufacturing industries and construction activities. The Statistics Office noted that low inflation has helped reduce input costs for both the construction and manufacturing sectors.

Prices of imported goods have remained stable or declined, largely due to tighter monetary policy in the United States, despite the rupee’s depreciation, particularly in the final quarter of the year.
Expanding private credit has also resulted in notable growth within Sri Lanka’s financial sector.
