Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average inflation rate in India?
India's average CPI (Consumer Price Index) inflation rate over the last decade has been approximately 5-6% per year. The RBI targets 4% inflation with a ±2% tolerance band.
How does inflation affect savings?
If your savings earn less than the inflation rate, your real wealth decreases. For example, if inflation is 6% and your FD earns 5%, you are losing purchasing power at 1% per year.
What is purchasing power?
