The Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation for October 2025 fell to 0.25%, marking a 10-year low. This represents a decrease of 119 basis points from September 2025. Notably, the All India Consumer Food Price Index recorded a year-on-year inflation rate of -5.02%. This significant drop is attributed to the impact of GST reductions and a favorable base effect.
The decline in inflation may influence monetary policy, potentially easing pressure on the Reserve Bank of India to adjust interest rates. Traders should monitor market reactions to this unexpected inflation dip.
