Volatile and high food prices remain a concern, but base effects may temper the retail inflation pace in June and possibly even cool it below 4% over July and August, economists reckon.
Retail price rise touched a 12-month low of 4.75% in May, even though food inflation stayed stuck at 8.7% for a second straight month
The prolonged heat wave and a delayed start to the southwest monsoon likely pushed June’s inflation to 5%
Vegetable prices began to rise sharply as the month progressed, while telecom tariffs were raised
