Retail inflation slipped to a multi-year low of 0.25% in October, driven by the impact of the GST rate cut and subdued prices of vegetables and fruits, government data showed on Wednesday (November 12, 2025).

The consumer price index (CPI) based retail inflation was 1.44% in September and 6.21% in October 2024.

According to the data released by the National Statistics Office (NSO), the food inflation declined to (-) 5.02% in October.

The decline in headline inflation and food inflation during October 2025 was mainly attributed to the whole month’s impact of GST rate cut, favorable base effect, and a drop in inflation of oils and fats, vegetables, fruits, egg, footwear, cereals and products, transport and communication, the NSO said.
