Below the Perspective on WPI Data of May 2025 by Mr. Sanjay Kumar, CEO & MD, Rassense Pvt Ltd
The cooling down of WPI consecutively for the third time in a row to a 14-month-low, trailing CPI to a nearly 6-year low, along with the RBI rate cut, defines an ideal economic growth sentiment across the country. This has led to a well-sustained moderation in food inflation, which is a great relief for both individual consumers and the food services sector. With the backdrop of a favourable monsoon and a strengthened liquidity flow in the hands of the consumers, we foresee a balanced sentiment going forward that will continue to keep the inflation within the targeted range.
Having said that, it will be critical for industry players to keep a constant watch on commodity trends and develop agile procurement models. There is massive scope for policymakers and businesses to collaboratively balance inflation control through the integration of AI at the grassroots level which will ease the burden on consumption-driven sectors like food services and retail.
