Wholesale price inflation rises to 4-month high of 0.52% in August

Wholesale price inflation rose to a four-month high of 0.52 per cent in August as prices of food articles and manufactured items inched up, even though fuel and power basket witnessed easing.

Reversing the deflationary trend of the past two months, (-) 0.58 in July and (-) 0.19 per cent in June, the Wholesale Price Index (WPI)-based inflation rose to its highest level since April, when it was 0.85 per cent.

Wholesale price inflation was 1.25 per cent in August last year.

“Positive rate of inflation in August 2025 is primarily due to an increase in prices of food products, manufacturing, nonfood articles, nonmetallic mineral products and transport equipment etc,’ the industry ministry said in a statement on Monday.
