Basis: IMF World Economic Outlook 2026 country CPI projections; MOSPI CPI (India); Colliers India construction-cost series (residential costs +39% over 2020–24, ~11% in the latest year); education-inflation studies placing Indian private/higher education at 8–12% a year vs a much lower official CPI-education print; JATO Dynamics passenger-vehicle price CAGR (India ~5.6% since 2019, moderating toward 4.5%); IATA/UN-Tourism and US Travel Price Index travel-cost trends; long-run currency-drift estimates from 20-year exchange-rate history (e.g. INR has weakened ~3.5–4.5% a year vs USD across 5/10/15/20-year windows). Currency drift for pegged currencies (AED, SAR) is treated as nil.
