#Economy #Inflation #IIP #CPI #IndustrialOutput #Production #RBI It’s a big double whammy for the Indian economy. In a major setback for policy-makers, consumer inflation has risen to 7.41% in September, much higher than the 7% clocked a month ago. The figure is much above RBI’s tolerance range of 2 to 6%. In what is equally bad news for the economy, industrial growth, measured by the Index of Industrial Production, has shrunk by 0.8% in August. The CPI figure for September is at a 5-month high, fast nearing the April figure after hitting a low of 6.71% in July. The September figure is way above the RBI’s estimate of 6.7% for this fiscal. It is also much higher than what the RBI had predicted for the quarter. However, the 3-month average of inflation for July to September comes in at 7.04%, a little below the 7.1% estimate of RBI. Meanwhile, in a big dampener for the overall economic growth, industrial activity shrunk by 80 basis points in August. The big drag was the manufacturing sector which shrunk by double digits.
