Ross

I believe the answer is:

inst

(Other definitions for inst that I've seen before include "The present month (abbr)" , "Business notation for the current month" , "Of the current month (abbreviation)" , "Business notation meaning this month" , "Business usage for this month" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday and the New York Times.
