Windfall gains tax on petroleum exports was reduced to support domestic fuel availability and limit export price advantages.
Special additional excise duty (windfall gains tax) on exports of petrol, diesel and aviation turbine fuel was reduced from 15 August 2026. Petrol export duty was reduced to nil, and export-duty rates on diesel and ATF were lowered. Duty rates for petrol and diesel cleared for domestic consumption remained unchanged. The export-duty framework seeks to maintain domestic petroleum-product availability and limit export advantages arising from higher global crude oil prices amid West Asia tensions.

Energy self-reliance drives diversified fuel sourcing, expanded offshore exploration, and domestic capacity to reduce geopolitical supply vulnerability.
Energy security policy seeks to reduce exposure to geopolitical pressure and supply disruption caused by dependence on overseas fuel and strategic maritime routes. India is diversifying crude oil and LNG sourcing while strengthening domestic hydrocarbon production through offshore exploration, seismic surveys, exploratory drilling and shared infrastructure. Expanded access to sedimentary basins is intended to unlock domestic oil and gas resources. Wider piped natural gas coverage, solar generation, critical-mineral exploration, and nuclear and other non-fossil energy sources support the broader objective of energy self-reliance.

Current account deficit widened as merchandise trade imbalance expanded, despite stronger services surplus, transfers, and positive capital inflows.
India's current account deficit widened in June 2026, principally because merchandise imports increased faster than exports and expanded the merchandise trade deficit. A higher services surplus, increased net transfers and a narrower net income deficit provided partial offsets. Net capital inflows, including foreign direct investment and foreign portfolio investment, supported a positive overall monthly balance. During the April-June quarter, despite increased services surplus and net transfers, the overall balance shifted to a deficit as the merchandise trade deficit widened.

Wholesale price inflation moderation was driven by softer fuel prices, while manufactured goods and primary articles recorded higher inflation.
Wholesale price inflation moderated in July, led by a decline in fuel and power inflation and a marginal easing in food-article inflation.

Mineral oils, food articles, basic metals, non-food articles, food products, and chemical products remained significant inflation drivers. The output Producer Price Index remained unchanged year-on-year, with lower manufacturing and mining inflation offset by higher agriculture and electricity producer-price inflation.
