Below the Quote on CPI Data by Gulam Zia Knight Frank India
“India’s retail inflation at 3.40%, marking the first print since the onset of the West Asia crisis, shows only a marginal increase, underscoring the resilience of domestic price dynamics. Despite elevated geopolitical tensions, the limited uptick suggests that pass-through effects are yet to be seen. Therefore, the outlook remains contingent on how the external environment evolves in the coming months.
From a real estate perspective, this modest increase has not translated into any meaningful pressure on input costs. Prices of key construction materials such as steel and cement remain stable, supporting developer margins and limiting the need for immediate price revisions. With housing demand already showing some moderation, residential prices are expected to remain largely steady in the near term, although the trajectory will need close monitoring.”
