NEW DELHI - India's annual wholesale price-based inflation accelerated to a record 14.55% in March from the previous month's 13.11%, government data showed on Monday.

March's figure was higher than 13% forecast in a Reuters poll of analysts, amid higher fuel prices, which were up 34.52% on the year, versus 31.50% in February.
