| Georgia | IMF | 2020-12-01 | confirmed | GEO.CPI_CP04_* | 2026-09-02 | Possible index rebasing |
| Georgia's housing and utilities index drops 127.34 -> 99.35 in December 2020, holds near 100 for exactly three months, and returns to 137.2 in March 2021 -- above where it started. A clean three-month rectangle in one division, which is what a temporary subsidy or price cap looks like in an index, and not what a base change looks like. The level RETURNS, which rules a base change out: a rebasing is permanent. That leaves a run of months the series recovers from -- too long for the single-month outlier rule, which needs the neighbours either side to agree, and too short to be a new base. Whether the run is bad data or a real episode is not established. | ||||||
