Truflation Index – India Product Update – May 2025
Truflation is pleased to announce an important update to our India inflation index with the integration of three new data providers: Numbeo, MagicBrick, and Housing.com.
This enhancement is part of our broader effort to expand data coverage, support new macroeconomic indexes, and deepen integration with third-party partners.
Expanding Granularity and Data Coverage
This update expands both the scope and precision of our India index. The new providers strengthen our index by enhancing coverage across ten major consumer price categories, including Food, Housing, and Transportation. Notably, the Housing category now benefits from five dedicated data partners, significantly improving its accuracy.
Impact of the Update
With the addition of these providers, Truflation is incorporating hundreds of thousands of new price points into a database that already tracks more than 8 million items across India. This update has resulted in a +0.12% upward adjustment to the Truflation India Index, underscoring the reliability of our existing data while further refining its depth and accuracy.

This change is being implemented today, May 1st, 2025, and all historical data has been revised back to January 2014 to ensure full consistency over time.
