2024年10月,印度批发价格同比上涨2.36%,而9月份上涨1.84%,超过了2.2%的预期涨幅。这标志着批发通胀连续第12个月出现,也是自6月以来的最快增速,这是由食品价格大幅上涨和制造业价格创三个月新高推动的。初级商品增长更快(8.09%对9月份的6.59%),而食品价格则创下2022年6月以来的最高涨幅(11.59%对9.47%),主要原因是蔬菜(63.04%)、土豆(78.73%)和洋葱(39.25%)的价格大幅上涨。与此同时,制造业价格加速至三个月高点(1.50%对1%),主要原因是食品(7.77%对5.49%)和橡胶塑料制品(1.57%对0.78%)的涨幅加快。相比之下,燃料和电力价格自2023年8月以来跌幅最大(-5.79%对-4.05%),原因是汽油(-7.35%)和HSD(-6.23%)下降。批发价格在9月份上调0.13%后,每月上涨0.97%。
India’s wholesale prices rose by 2.36% yoy in October 2024, after a 1.84% gain in September, outpacing forecasts of a 2.2% gain. This marks the 12th consecutive month of wholesale inflation and the fastest pace since June, driven by significant rises in food prices and a three-month high in manufacturing prices. Primary articles saw faster growth (8.09% vs 6.59% in September), while food prices registered the highest increase since June 2022 (11.59% vs 9.47%), mainly due to a sharp rise in the prices of vegetables (63.04%), potatoes (78.73%), and onions (39.25%). Meanwhile, manufacturing prices accelerated to a three-month high (1.50% vs. 1%), mainly driven by faster rises in food products (7.77% vs 5.49%) and rubber & plastic products (1.57% vs. 0.78%). In contrast, fuel & power prices fell the most since August 2023 (-5.79% vs -4.05%), attributed to drops in petrol (-7.35%) and HSD (-6.23%). Monthly, wholesale prices climbed 0.97%, after an upwardly revised 0.13% rise in September.
