NATIONAL ACCOUNTS STATISTICS - 2026 PUBLICATION

The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has released the 'National Accounts Statistics – 2026' publication based on the 2022-23 base year. It provides comprehensive estimates of national income, production, expenditure, and other macroeconomic aggregates across sixty primary statements along with four provisional and quarterly estimation statements. The publication incorporates new series of the Producer Price Index (PPI), Index of Industrial Production (IIP), and Banking Services Price Index (BkSPI)—all with a 2022-23 base year—along with updated administrative data. These new indicators reflect expanded commodity baskets and methodological alignment with international standards, replacing the older Wholesale Price Index (WPI) in specific calculations. Consequently, annual and quarterly GDP estimates from 2022-23 onwards have undergone revisions at both current and constant prices, reflecting structural updates across various industrial sectors.
