Feb 12 (Reuters) - India’s key inflation rate accelerated to 2.75% in January on higher food and precious metal prices, the maiden print under a revised data series showed on Thursday, returning to the central bank’s target band for the first time since August.
A Reuters poll had projected retail inflation at 2.4%.
The new data series lowers the weighting of key components such as food, while moving the base year to 2024 from 2012.
COMMENTARY:
MADHAVI ARORA, CHIEF ECONOMIST, EMKAY GLOBAL FINANCIAL SERVICES, MUMBAI
“We do not expect the new inflation series to materially influence policy in the near term. An extended rate pause looks likely, underpinned by a cyclical upturn in both growth and inflation and improving confidence following the conclusion of the U.S.–India trade negotiations.”
