India's Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation has updated key economic measurement methodologies, including revising the GDP base year from 2011-12 to 2022-23 and modernizing the Index of Industrial Production (IIP). These changes aim to reflect more accurate economic data, with revised GDP estimates showing lower growth figures than previously reported. The IIP update involves a new base year and methodological adjustments to better capture industrial output trends, as part of a broader overhaul of official statistics.
