New Delhi: India’s wholesale price index rose 12.10% in the 12 months to August 30, below the previous week’s annual rise of 12.34%, government data showed on Thursday.

The rate was above a median forecast of 11.96% in a Reuters poll of analysts.

Inflation for the week ended July 5 was revised up to 12.19% from 11.91%.

The annual inflation rate was 3.72% during the corresponding week of the previous year.

The wholesale price index is more closely watched than the consumer price index, which is published monthly, because it covers a higher number of products and is published weekly.
