Uneven Monsoons and El Niño Risks May Lead to RBI Interest Rate Hike
Uneven monsoons and potential El Niño conditions may increase food inflation risks in India for fiscal year 2027, according to a Nuvama Institutional Equities report. Headline Consumer Price Index inflation rose to 6.1% in October, driven mainly by food prices and base effects. While demand-side pressures remain contained, the Reserve Bank of India may consider another interest rate hike if inflation risks persist. Core inflation measures also showed modest increases amid rising costs in sectors like restaurant services.
