Inflation indicators compare prices of goods and services in 12 months. A decline does not necessarily imply a reduction in prices; instead, it shows the rate of price increase had fallen compared to previous months.
According to the NBS food inflation was 37.52 per cent in August 2024 as against 39. 53 per cent recorded in July.
