AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoIAB Standards Push: IAB’s Project Eidos released its first Campaign Data Standards 1.0 for public comment (open until June 14), aiming to cut ad-data chaos with a shared baseline for campaign and placement-level reporting, starting with Ad Type and Ad Inventory taxonomies. Fuel Shock Fallout: In India, petrol and diesel prices jumped ₹3 per litre nationwide (CNG ₹2/kg), the first hike in nearly four years, as crude stays high and the rupee hits fresh lows; Delhi petrol is ₹97.77 and diesel ₹90.67, while markets slid on inflation fears. Politics vs. Price Pain: Tamil Nadu’s CM called the hike “unacceptable” and demanded a rollback, while BJP framed it as a “limited and calibrated” response to global oil pressure. Supply-Side Moves: OMCs are ramping refinery output to protect pump availability, and some states are trying to soften the blow—Maharashtra cut petrol VAT from 18% to 7% for six months starting May 15. Market Mood: Sensex and Nifty closed lower as crude rose toward $109 and currency weakness weighed sentiment.
