India's economy grew faster than expected in the three months to the end of June, easing some fears about a sharp slowdown in Asia's third-largest economy.
Growth was 5.5% in the April to June period from a year earlier. Most analysts had forecast a rate of 5.2%.
That compares with a 5.3% annual growth rate in the previous quarter.
However, there are concerns that a lack of reforms, slowing factory output and investment may hurt long-term growth.
