Retail inflation at 6.2 per cent dims early rate cut hopes

India's retail inflation unexpectedly jumped to a 14-month high of 6.2% in October, driven by soaring vegetable, fruit, and edible oil prices. This surge breaches the central bank's target range and delays the possibility of interest rate cuts. Economists predict inflation will remain elevated for a few months before gradually easing towards the Reserve Bank of India's target rate.
