    Political criticism of public office-holders raises debate over media accountability, personal remarks, and acceptable public discourse.
    Political criticism followed a social-media post describing Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar as "gungi gudiya" in connection with a press interaction on law-and-order issues in Beed district. Congress representatives stated that the post was not a personal insult, had been deleted after adverse reactions, and was followed by an expression of regret. NCP representatives termed the expression inappropriate and stressed that the principal dignitary should conduct media interactions. Shiv Sena (UBT) representatives described the phrase as not unparliamentary and linked it to criticism of a guardian minister's public responsibilities.

It recognises electronic bank records as admissible evidence, allows production in physical or electronic form, and provides for standardised certificates authenticated by manual, digital or electronic signatures. The Bill also defines "special cause" for compelling bank officers to produce records or testify where the bank is not a party, and permits extension to specified financial-sector entities subject to conditions.

    Neutral monetary policy stance continues as inflation clarity is awaited, alongside cooperative banking and lending-rate transparency measures.
    Monetary policy maintained the benchmark policy repo rate and a neutral stance pending clearer evidence that energy-cost pressures will generate broad-based inflation. Inflation is expected to rise temporarily due principally to food and fuel prices before moderating, while core inflation remains benign. The approach remains data-dependent, supported by two-way liquidity operations. Proposed measures include resuming urban cooperative bank licensing, revising rural cooperative bank credit-monitoring directions, and harmonising interest-rate regulation on advances across regulated entities to improve transparency and consumer protection.

    Repo rate stability preserves the policy stance amid lower inflation projections, stronger growth expectations and external-sector resilience.
    Monetary policy maintained the repo rate at 5.25 per cent following a unanimous policy committee decision. The growth forecast for FY27 was marginally increased, while the inflation projection was lowered. Inflation conditions remain uncertain because of monsoon, El Nino and geopolitical developments. Liquidity remained in surplus, and external-sector indicators reflected a current-account surplus, buoyant foreign direct investment inflows, renewed foreign portfolio investment inflows, and adequate foreign-exchange reserves.

      The Office of Economic Adviser, DPIIT is releasing the revised series of WPI with base year 2022-23. The new series will replace the existing series of WPI with base year 2011-12. In addition, the Office is also releasing new series of Output Producer Price Index (OPPI), Trial Input Producer Price Index (IPPI), and Service Producer Price Index (Service PPI) of seven services, viz., Banking, Securities Transaction, Insurance, Management of Pension Funds, Railways, Air (Passenger), and Telecom with the same base year.

      Considering the wide usage of WPI in price escalation clauses, this index will be released for five years from the date of its release, along with PPI, and will be discontinued thereafter. This would give sufficient time to users to switch from WPI to PPI. The transition from WPI to PPI is in alignment with the global best practices adopted by advanced economies and the recommendations of the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Availability of both the Output PPI and Input PPI gives a better understanding of the price movements of output produced vis-a-vis inputs being used in an industry. It also explains how inflation experienced by producers on inputs are passed on to the output being produced.

      Service PPIs for seven services have been compiled in the first phase based on the availability of data from administrative sources/agencies.

      WPI, and Output PPI, being compiled on a monthly basis, are being released for the month of May 2026 (Provisional Estimates). The back series of these indices are placed on the web portal of the Office of the Economic Adviser at weblink (https://eaindustry.nic.in/download_data_2223.asp). The monthly Trial Input PPI (only for Manufacturing Sector) is being published on an experimental basis March 2026 onwards. The publication of Trial Input PPI would enable the Department to examine the data quality and also receive feedback of stakeholders and users.

      Service PPIs, compiled on a quarterly basis, are being released for Q4 of 2025-26 (Provisional). The back series of Service PPIs is placed on the web portal of the Office of the Economic Adviser at weblink (https://eaindustry.nic.in/download_data_2223.asp).

      Key features of the new WPI series (Base Year 2022-23):

      1. Increased number of Items: The total number of items have increased from 697 to 957.
      2. Inclusion of New and Renewable Energy under Electricity: New sources of energy, such as Solar and Wind, have been added under ‘Electricity’ Group. In addition, Nuclear Electricity has been included in the basket.
      3. Coherent and Integrated Structure for Tracking Energy Prices: Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas has been shifted from ‘Primary Articles’ to ‘Fuel and Power’ major group. This reorganization has been done to ensure better alignment, as this group already houses other major fuels such as coal, electricity, and petroleum products.
      4. Improved Methodology for Derivation of Weights: Gross Value of Output (GVO) has been used for preparing weights for WPI 2022-23 series, compared to Net Traded Value i.e. GVO + Imports – Exports, used in WPI 2011-12 series. Weights derived on the basis of GVO represent the economic significance of commodities more accurately, as they reflect domestic production than the trade flows.
      5. Improved Computation Methodology: The elementary indices have been compiled using short-term formulation method, in place of long-term formulation method used in WPI 2011-12 series.
      6. Improved Method for Imputing Missing Price Data: In case of non-response or missing data, ‘Targeted Mean Imputation’ method has been used to impute missing prices in WPI 2022-23 series, compared to the ‘Carry Forward’ method followed in WPI 2011-12 series.
      7. Linking Factor: The Linking Factor has been computed as ratio of geometric means of the twelve-month indices of old and new series of WPI for the financial year 2024-25. At lower levels of disaggregation, the composition of the item basket has undergone significant changes, owing to the inclusion of new items and the removal of obsolete ones. Consequently, the derivation of linking factors at such granular levels may not yield reliable results. Linking Factor for linking 2011-12 series with 2022-23 series is given below: -

      Major Group

      Linking Factor

      All Commodities

      1.53

      Primary Articles

      1.71

      Fuel and Power

      1.65

      Manufactured Products

      1.44

      While linking factors for All Commodities and Major Groups have been provided for reference, users are advised to exercise due caution while interpreting and comparing the indices across the two series. It may also be noted that, as a matter of policy, the Office of the Economic Adviser, DPIIT does not prescribe any specific methodology for linking or converting indices from one series to another. The selection of an appropriate linking approach is left to the discretion of users, depending on their analytical requirements and purposes.

      Producer Price Indices (PPIs)

      The weights for Output PPI and trial Input PPI have been derived using the Supply Table and Use Table respectively of Supply & Use Table (SUT) of National Accounts for the year 2022-23.

      WPI, Output PPI and Service PPI are being compiled on the basis of Basic Price (which excludes Net Tax and Trade & Transport Margin), whereas trial Input PPI is being compiled using Purchaser’s Price since industries purchase input from market.

      Release Schedule

      Provisional indices of WPI, OPPI, and trial IPPI for a reference month will be released on the 14th of the following month (if it is a working day, else on next working day). Since new WPI series (Base Year 2022-23) is being released, index for old series (Base Year 2011-12) will be discontinued. Service PPIs for seven services will be released on a quarterly basis with a lag of 55 days from the closure of the reference quarter (if it is a working day, else on next working day).

      Accordingly, release of WPI, Output PPI, and trial Input PPI for the month of June 2026 will be on Tuesday, 14th July 2026.

      Service PPIs for seven services for Q1 of FY 2026-27 will be released on Monday, 24th August 2026.
