Inflation close to zero

New Delhi: Inflation eased to 0.18 per cent, a new low in over 30 years, although vegetables cost 25 per cent more than it did a year ago and so did other food items — making it a political scoring point in Parliamentary polls underway from Thursday.

Inflation fell by 0.08 percentage points during the week ended April four against 0.26 per cent in the previous week, but a number of food articles such as pulses, cereals, processed fish, common salt, tea, coffee, and liquor turned dearer, besides vegetables.

Vegetables turned dearer by 24.9 per cent and oil cakes by 2.4 per cent on a weekly basis. — PTI
