Hello @prashantvshrivastavamusafir,

Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

We’ve checked your sitemap and looks like it is working properly without any issues.

However, if your newly published posts aren’t automatically included on your sitemap then it could be a caching issue. In this case, please try to use the following filter on your website to disable the Rank Math sitemap transients cache:

add_filter( 'rank_math/sitemap/enable_caching', '__return_false');

Here’s how you can add filter/hook to your WordPress site:

Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.

Thank you.
