Gains in power generation and pollution levels took a breather for the latest week as the economy continues its trudge to normalcy.

Other weekly indicators such as traffic and mobility held steady. Business Standard tracks these and other metrics such as goods carried by Indian railways as a measure of how the economy is faring. Analysts across the globe have been tracking similar high frequency indicators to get a current sense of the economy as official data is often released with a lag, and nations the world over have gone into lockdown to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic.
