Wholesale Inflation Hits 49-Month High of 11.4% in India
Wholesale Price Index (WPI) inflation rose to 11.4% in September, a 49-month high, while food inflation reached 8.1%. Rising input costs, supply disruptions and food price pressures contribute to inflation. India must strengthen agricultural supply chains, improve storage, diversify imports and coordinate fiscal and monetary policies to maintain price stability and economic growth.
