Thursday, Sep 11

NEW DELHI - India's headline inflation slipped to 12.10% for the
week ended Aug 30 from 12.34% in the previous week, the commerce and
industry ministry said today.
This is the third consecutive week that the inflation rate has
fallen week on week.
The fall in inflation rate, based on the wholesale price index, is
on
account of a high base effect.

240.8 from 240.3 a week earlier. In the corresponding week last year,
the index had risen 0.4% on week to 214.8.
