Where demand signals run ahead of mapped supply — India
Every demand signal in India’s newsflow, measured as a share of the
country’s own coverage (2025-05-01 to 2026-05-01, against the year before), then scored beside
family-matched supply — the companies in each signal’s mapped energy
categories — as within-page percentiles. The gap is signal percentile minus supply percentile
— a prioritisation clue in percentile points, not a market size.
