India's Service Producer Price Index Shows 31.9% Rise in Air Passenger Prices in Q1 FY27
India's newly introduced Service Producer Price Index (Service PPI) for Q1 FY27 shows a 31.94% year-on-year surge in air passenger service prices, the highest among seven tracked services. Other sectors showed mixed trends: pension fund management rose 5.20%, railway services 1.27%, insurance 0.98%, and telecom 0.72%, while banking and securities transaction services declined. The index, based on 2022-23 prices, aims to measure producer-level price changes and currently covers select services without assigned aggregate weights.
