The Morning Standard
|January 26, 2026
THE basket for Consumer Price Index (CPI), which measures retail inflation, is set for a new-age makeover to reflect the current consumption trends and consumer behaviours.
Digital consumption will assume significance in the new CPI basket. Online media and streaming services (OTT platforms) will now be tracked, while prices of telephone services—both landline and mobile—will increasingly draw on online and e-commerce data. In line with rising air travel, international air travel has been added within the airfare index.
