would have come into force from the day deal was struck), the cost of the deal would go down significantly; and because of the very fact that payments are to be made in tranches, it would result in savings.With that in mind, I can't see how your objections are any longer valid. I can see that the wording sounds a bit vague to you, but it is what it is. We, in our capacity as Knowledge editors, are not in a position to decide what things are, or interpret what reliable sources say—we'll just make the articles congruent with what they say and then leave it to the readers to interpret the objective information for themselves. That being said, we can append a line or two apropos of the expected savings over the course of the deal owing to the change in the inflation formula to eliminate vagueness and ambiguity. Give me a day or two, and i'll be appending the said lines myself (as real life has me extremely busy of late).As for the HT reports claiming that the base year was changed to bring down the cost in contrast with what the PTI article has intimated, I'm not sure what in it you are alluding to; but the aforementioned reports doesn't inspire any confidence: there is no corroboration of the aforementioned claim in the reliable sources out there, which, although is not a sufficient reason to impugn its veracity, makes it reasonable to disbelieve such a seemingly isolated claim, especially given the fact that these

even by any government officials or NDA ministers. No one has made this claim except this particular report. Whenever government officials or NDA ministers have compared the prices between the IGA and the MMRCA agreement, they have always provided a frame of reference such as comparison of prices of the bare aircraft. This report does not provide any such frame of reference, but still purports to compare a deal for 126 aircraft and 36 aircraft, both with considerably different amount of deliverables and arrives at a figure that is exactly the same as the drop in price in January 2016. Considering all this, it looks like a mistake made while reporting and should not belong here.

have to pay less. Even if it goes up India will not pay more than 3.5 per cent increase, sources said. After Dassault Aviation, makers of the Rafales, emerged as winners, the UPA government had agreed with French officials to calculate the price on the fixed cost formula that allowed the company to include additional price of 3.9 per cent inflation indices from day 1 of the deal. So, had the deal gone ahead, India would have ended up paying additional cost of inflation Indices (@3.9 per cent) which was already added at the initial negotiation itself.
761: 1381:). All these claims by government officials and politicians always present some standard of comparison, such as comparison of bare aircraft while comparing the two deals as they're very different (126 with 18 flyaway vs 36 flyaway) with different deliverables. This PTI report presents no such standard. You have have been avoiding these points since the beginning. Since you keep slipping around these questions let me put them in points: 335: 1750:
strictly congruent with what the sources say and no longer gives the impression that the savings as consequent to the change in the basis of the price calculation and capping of the inflation at 3.5% have to necessarily do with the savings of 750 million Euros. Further, it must be noted that the reliable sources, when discussing about the overall reduction in price, makes it patently clear that these two different factors both
1313:. The PTI report does not report the savings with respect to the UPA-era deal as a fact, it reports that "defence sources" has told it so. Since it is merely quoting an unnamed source, yes, it can be put under question. It has to be corroborated by others sources because, as I explained in my first comment, there are many discrepancies in the report. You have addressed none of these and you keep harping on the fact that PTI is 508: 751: 730: 839: 207: 561: 540: 430: 403: 1102:- immediately undid it.

These are not directly related to the controversy and including them will add needless complexity to the section. I have already added the aftermath of those objections where A. K.

I think this should be sufficient for the purpose of providing a background to the controversy. — 292: 571: 1711:) asserting that the price of the aircraft was calculated with 2011 as base year, which would conflict with what the PTI report says. These reports attribute the savings to change of base year from 2011 and 2015. It is possible to cherry pick the data from the two sources and say that the savings are from changing the base year along with lower inflation rates, but that'd be 372: 440: 1472:
asked France to make the deal cost calculations on the basis of actual cost, or “Price as on today”, plus European Inflation Indices. The Defence Ministry capped the European Inflation Indices at a maximum of 3.5% a year. At the time of UPA, the fixed cost formula had been agreed on and an inflation of 3.9% was allowed to be added from the first day of the deal itself.
237: 666: 1776:). It's in any case a red herring.And just so I am clear, I am not opposed to mentioning information, such as the one about the "€11 billion figure" separately in the article, for I think these might give some insight to the readers vis-à-vis the steps taken by the Indian government and/or Dassault Aviation aimed at reducing the overall price of the deal. 645: 1933:
I don't see anyone who has agreed with your removal and still you are edit warring.

Gazoth, I see you have again deleted content by giving an inadequate reason. In my opinion you are just being stubborn now and refusing to understand what others are saying.

My bad, I missed that you removed the contentious bit in your edit. But, my objection still stands.

The reduction in price was due to the Indian team asking their French counterparts that the price of the deal be calculated based on the actual cost, i.e. "price as on today", and European inflation indices, which the Indian defence ministry capped at a maximum of 3.5% per annum, as against the fixed

Stop changing the goalposts. You said that it cannot be questioned as PTI reported it as a fact, but when I showed that it is clearly not true, you're now creating a straw man to argue against.

As stated above, India has saved around 750 million Euros in the deal. In January 2016, when France President Francois Hollande came to India, the French side had quoted a price of 8.6 billion Euros.

Hi again. I did some digging and it appears that the change in the basis of the price calculation and capping of the inflation at 3.5% indeed weren't the sole factors that contributed to the overall reduction in price. In fact, I just noticed that the PTI report also elucidates other factors. For
