New Delhi, October 14
Spiralling prices of food items, especially vegetables, pushed up the wholesale inflation to a seven-month high of 1.32% in September and cements the likelihood that the RBI will continue with status quo on interest rates.
The Wholesale Price Index (WPI)-based inflation was at 0.16% in August.
The WPI-based inflation appears to be moving in sync with CPI-based retail inflation which shot up to an eight-month high of 7.34% in September, mainly on account of rising prices of food items. — PTI
