|June 12, 2025

India’s statistics ministry is exploring tapping into alternative data sources such as online platforms for air and rail fares, OTT services, and administrative records for price data for petrol, diesel and LPG for the new Consumer Price Index (CPI) series, Saurabh Garg, Secretary, Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) told in an interview. The new CPI series, which is expected to come out from the first quarter of 2026, is also likely to directly incorporate data from Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) and Petroleum Planning and Analysis Cell (PPAC).
