India: Softer CPI keeps RBI on hold – MUFG

MUFG’s Senior Currency Analyst Lloyd Chan notes that India’s CPI inflation under the rebased 2024 series rose to 2.8% year-on-year, driven mainly by food prices. He highlights that this places inflation back within the Reserve Bank of India’s 2%-6% target band, which should allow policymakers to keep rates unchanged at the April policy meeting.
