CPI may hit 6.2% by end of Q2, says Morgan Stanley

However, the consumer price index (CPI) is expected to moderate to 5-6% in the second half of FY24.

The investment bank said despite its core inflation forecast for India remaining unchanged, it maintains the base case of a shallow rate cut cycle from Jan-March 2024. It also expects the recent trend in inflation to undergo broad-based moderation, and the possibility of a delayed start in the rate-cut cycle.

In a report titled 'Assessing Risks to Inflation Trajectory', Morgan Stanley said it expects India's CPI during July to be around 6.2-6.4%.
