India’s retail inflation logs 3.34% in March 2025, nearly 6-year low

India’s retail inflation hit a near six-year low of 3.34% in March, fueled by cheaper vegetables and protein-rich foods. This drop follows a recent repo rate cut by the RBI, which forecasts a 4% average CPI inflation for fiscal year 2025-26. Wholesale price inflation also decreased to a six-month low of 2.05%, driven by lower vegetable and essential food prices.
