This sharp rise can be attributed to higher food inflation of 11.51 percent Says Mr. Nish Bhatt, Millwood Kane International
Perspective on on July CPI data By Mr. Nish Bhatt, Founder & CEO, Millwood Kane International
"India's retail inflation rate surged to nearly a 15-month high of 7.44 per cent in July, breaching the upper limit of the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) tolerance band of 2-6 per cent. This is much higher than industry predictions of 6.4- 6.5 per cent.
This sharp rise can be attributed to higher food inflation of 11.51 percent, a cause of concern. We expect this inflation rate to be short-lived as the long-term fundamentals of the Indian market remain strong. We may likely see the rate start softening up in Q4, once we approach the election."
