WPI INFLATION

India’s wholesale inflation rises in March 2026, driven by higher crude oil and fuel costs due to West Asia tensions; economists flag continued pressure ahead.

The increase in WPI inflation was primarily driven by higher prices in several key sectors, including food articles, food products manufacturing, textiles, and non-food articles.

WPI inflation falls below zero at -0.92% in April, first time since July 2020
