GDP statistics for the first three months of 2012 were not at par with expectations. During

April the rate of industrial production was pretty unimpressive as well when compared on a yearon-year basis and to March 2012.

However, inflation rate is still pretty high in India. In May 2012, the WPI inflation increased to 7.55 percent as opposed to 7.23% in April. At present the CPI inflation rate is more than 10 percent.
