India, July 15 -- India's wholesale price inflation slipped into the negative zone for the first time in 19 months, contracting by 0.13% in June 2025, driven by a sharp drop in food, fuel, and key manufactured goods, according to government data released Monday.
WPI inflation was 0.39% in May and 3.43% in June 2024. The Ministry of Commerce and Industry attributed the decline to lower prices of food articles, mineral oils, basic metals, and crude petroleum.
