India Economy — CPI, GDP, Repo Rate, FII Flows & the Rupee

The national macro reading in one place — inflation and GDP prints, the RBI repo rate, PMI and IIP, FII/DII flows, index-level earnings, crude and the rupee, as they are reported.

The national macro reading

One page for the numbers the Indian economy is measured by, each shown with its official source and the period it refers to: CPI and WPI inflation, IIP industrial output, GDP, the RBI repo rate and policy corridor, forex reserves, PMI, FII and DII flows, index-level earnings, crude oil and the rupee.

Official prints from the RBI, MOSPI and DPIIT are kept separate from broker and economist commentary, so a reported figure and an opinion about it are never blended.
