India’s retail inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), rose to a 23-month high of 5.54% in September primarily driven by higher food prices, data released by the statistics ministry on Monday showed. The spike was largely on expected lines, yet analysts said it increased expectations of more interest rate hikes. Economists polled by FE estimated September CPI inflation at 5.6%, up from 4.82% in August.
