India's wholesale price index (WPI) based inflation for July rose to a three-month high of -1.36 per cent from -4.12 per cent in June, mainly due to decline in prices of mineral oils, basic metals, chemical & chemical products, textiles and food products.
The WPI inflation has remained in the deflationary zone for the fourth month in a row in July, data released on Monday by the Union commerce ministry showed.
While it was at -4.12 per cent in June, in May it had stood at -3.48 per cent.
