NEW DELHI, MAY 7. After remaining firm for two consecutive weeks, inflation fell marginally to 4.26 per cent during the week ended April 24 even as prices of fruits, vegetables, eggs and various manufactured items, including edible oils have risen.

The point-to-point wholesale price index inflation fell from 4.4 per cent despite fuel prices remaining unchanged amidst violent gyrations in the international markets.
