India, June 6 -- Eurozone retail sales grew only marginally in April as growth in food and auto fuel turnover was partially offset by the fall in non-food product sales, Eurostat reported Friday.

The monthly growth in retail sales softened to 0.1 percent in April from 0.4 percent in March. Economists had forecast a 0.2 percent rise.

Food, drinks and tobacco sales logged a faster growth of 0.5 percent, following a 0.1 percent rise. Likewise, automotive fuel in specialised stores rose 1.3 percent after a 0.6 percent gain.

Meanwhile, non-food product sales dropped 0.3 percent, reversing March's 0.5 percent increase.
