NEW DELHI (Reuters) – India’s annual wholesale price-based inflation eased marginally to 12.96% in January from the previous month’s figure of 13.56%, government data showed on Monday.
January’s figure was higher than 12.70% forecast in a Reuters poll of analysts, amid higher food prices, up 9.55% on the year, versus 9.24% in December.
