India to update CPI in 2026 with rural housing data, excluding subsidized housing.
India’s statistics ministry plans to include rural housing data in the new 2024-based Consumer Price Index, launching in early 2026.
The update will cover both urban and rural areas, using rent data from the 2023-24 Household Consumption Expenditure Survey, with monthly data collection and 12 dwellings surveyed per urban market and six in rural areas.
Employer- and government-provided housing will be excluded to reflect market conditions.
The change aims to improve accuracy, address past inconsistencies, and better capture inflation trends, with feedback open until November 20, 2025.
