Posted On: 12 MAY 2026 6:04PM by PIB Delhi The National Statistics Office (NSO), Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has revised the release date of the Provisional Estimates (PE) of Annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Quarterly Estimates of GDP for Fourth Quarter (Q4) from last working day of May to 7 th June (or the previous working day if 7 th June is a holiday) of every year . The revision in the release schedule has been made after due consultation with the Advisory Committee on National Accounts Statistics (ACNAS) with a view to further strengthen the data quality. The need for revising the release date has arisen as certain critical datasets become available only after a lag of up to two months. In particular, the statutory timeline for filing audited Q4 and annual financial results by listed companies is 60 days from the end of the financial year, resulting in a large number of companies furnishing their financial statements closer to the deadline of 31st May. Further, in respect of Central Government Accounts, key fiscal data relating to revenue expenditure, capital expenditure, taxes, subsidies, and interest payments for the month of March are finalized and become available only after a lag of two months. Accordingly, the Press Note on Provisional Estimates (PE) of GDP for FY 2025-26 and Quarterly Estimates of GDP for the Fourth Quarter (January-March) of 2025-26 is scheduled to be released on 5 th June, 2026. This revision forms part of the continued efforts of the Ministry towards improving the quality, coverage and robustness of data used in national accounts compilation and is also aligned with prevailing international best practices. ***** Samrat/Pranab (Release ID: 2260360) Visitor Counter : 1225 Read this release in: Urdu , हिन्दी Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation Revision of the Release Date of Provisional Estimates of Annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Fourth Quarter (Q4) GDP Estimates Posted On: 12 MAY 2026 6:04PM by PIB Delhi The National Statistics Office (NSO), Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has revised the release date of the Provisional Estimates (PE) of Annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Quarterly Estimates of GDP for Fourth Quarter (Q4) from last working day of May to 7 th June (or the previous working day if 7 th June is a holiday) of every year .
