Profits at China’s industrial companies grew at a faster pace in September despite surging prices and supply chain bottlenecks, mainly supported by robust profits in mining and raw materials industries.
Profits jumped 16.3 per cent in September from a year earlier to 738.74 billion yuan ($115.72 billion), according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics on Wednesday, accelerating from the 10.1 per cent gain in August.
