14-Jul-2026

India’s retail inflation based on the Consumer Price Index hit an 18-month high of 4.38% in June, rising above the Reserve Bank of India’s medium-term target of 4% for the first time since January 2025. The broadbased rise in CPI inflation, from 3.93% in May, signalled generalised price pressures building in the economy. June inflation came in slightly higher than the median of forecasts, which were in a broader band than usual.
