What is the Index of Services Production and which sectors does it cover?

India has introduced the Index of Services Production (ISP), a new monthly indicator that measures changes in the output of the services sector. Released by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI), the ISP is intended to complement the Index of Industrial Production (IIP) by providing a high-frequency measure of services sector activity.
