Question
As per the July 2025 FSR, India’s domestic Consumer
Price Index (CPI) inflation dropped to what level in May 2025, marking a six-year low? ÂSolution
Explanation: Â
The FSR points out that domestic CPI inflation fell to 2.8% in May 2025 , which is the lowest in six years. Â
- This sharp decline demonstrates price stability and easing of demand-side as well as supply-side pressures. Â
- Inflation at 2.8% falls below the RBI’s medium-term target of 4% (with tolerance band 2–6%), reflecting a disinflationary trend. Â
- Contributing factors include lower food and fuel price pressures, softer global commodity prices due to slower international growth, and strong domestic supply chains. Â
- However, the report also cautions that imported inflation risks remain due to uncertainties like Middle East tensions. Â
