Question

What is India’s retail inflation recorded in the month of September?
  • 5.02 %
  • 7.02 %
  • 4.02 %
  • 6.02 %
Answer- A

India’s retail inflation, in terms of the Consumer Price Index CPI, eased to a three-month low in September, to 5.02%.

Moreover, the inflation came below RBI’s upper tolerance band of 2%-6%.

RBI has clarified that it is targeting inflation of 4% and a figure of below 6% may not suffice as a condition for easing its lending rates.
