Interest rate hike of 25bps by RBI will be further dampener for already slowed down industrial growth, said B Muthuraman, president of CII.

Speaking to CNBC-TV18, Muthuraman said, "The index of industrial production (IIP) is now at 3.3%. On year-on-year basis it is around 5.8% as compared to over 9% of last year, so it is worrying."

Post the rate hike he expects further slowdown in industrial growth.
