Production growth is observed in the manufacturing industry — by 8,5%, in the supply of electricity, gas, steam, hot water and air conditioning — by 6,9%, and in water supply, sewerage, waste collection, treatment and disposal activities, as well as remediation activities — by 16,2%. A decline in production is observed in the mining industry — by 11,4%.
Among the regions, the largest growth was recorded in Almaty, Zhambyl, Zhetisu, Soltustik Kazakhstan, Ulytau, Turkistan regions and Astana and Almaty cities.
In January- March 2026, industrial products were produced in the amount of 15177,2 billion tenge, of which in the mining industry - by 6245,6 billion tenge (41,2% of the total volume), in the manufacturing industry - by 7563,7 billion tenge (49,8%).

In the mining and quarrying in January- March 2026 the IIP was 88,6%, due to a decrease in the production of crude oil (80,2%), natural gas (80%), extraction of other minerals (84,9%).
In the manufacturing the IIP in January- March 2026 compared to January- March 2025 was 108,5%. The growth was recorded in the production of manufacture of food - by 12,6%, beverages – by 10%, tobacco products – by 37,6%, manufacture of basic pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations – 1,5 times, manufacture of rubber and plastіc products - by 26,9%, products мanufacture of other nonmetallіc mіneral products - by 37,1%, finished metal products, except machinery and equipment – by 39,3%, mechanical engineering - by 21,9%.
In the supply of electricity, gas, steam, hot water and air conditioning the IIP amounted to 106,9% due to an increase in the production, transmission and distribution of electricity - by 2,2%, production and distribution of gas fuel -by 12,3%, gas supply and air-conditioning systems – by 22,5%.
In water supply; sanitation; waste collection, treatment and disposal, pollution elimination activities the IIP in January- March 2026 amounted to 116,2%. The volumes of water intake, treatment and distribution of increased by 12,3%, collection, treatment of waste water - by 13,9%, processing and disposal of waste, recycling (recovery) of materials – by 19,9%.
An increase in production volumes was recorded in 15 regions of the republic, a decrease is observed in Akmola, Atyrau, Batys Kazakhstan, Kostanay and Shygys Kazakhstan regions.
The volume of industrial production in value terms is the cost of all finished products (products) produced by the enterprise, semi-finished products of its production (both from its own raw materials and materials, and from raw materials and materials of the customer), intended for sale to the side, its capital construction and its non-industrial divisions, issuing to its employees on account of wages, as well as works and services of an industrial nature, performed on orders.
The volume of industrial production in physical terms is the output of specific types of products in physical terms. The volume of industrial production in physical terms is taken into account in terms of gross output, including products spent on industrial and production needs within a given enterprise and produced from raw materials supplied by the customer.
The index of industrial production is a relative indicator that characterizes the change in the volume of industrial production in the periods being compared.
The information base for the formation of indicators of industrial products (goods, services) is the primary data of nationwide statistical observations of industrial enterprises, enterprises with a secondary activity of "Industry", individual entrepreneurs, peasant or farm enterprises.
To calculate the index of industrial production, a method is used based on the dynamics of physical indicators for an established set (basket) of representative goods, followed by a step-by-step aggregation of individual (commodity) indices into indices by types of economic activity, Indices for large populations are calculated as a weighted average of the constituent elements of these populations.
