In my view, these inflation numbers can be managed/controlled to keep around 7 and may take another one to one & half years to repair it with honest political will power.

more risk,more profit but have a vision before taking risk,itis all about investment in equities market.

Apna Head Master Mr. Reddy is coming with a stick. Suddenly you may hear in the night that CRR is hiked by so much, PLR is by so much, Repo rate and reverse repo rate has not been touched and so on so forth.

Get ready for the master's session.

So at 11% we can't get too worse from here can we?This is a crime of not raising fuel prices in small doses and going for the kill in one shot. had we raised prices in small doses we would have got a steady 5% to 6% inflation instead of 4% and 11%

Now someone will jump on me to ask the weightage of fuel in the WPI but at the end of the say it is better to let market forces handle the problem rather then regulatory forces.

Maybe our Comrades could learn something from China.

Is there something like an household inflation index - one that excludes stuff like steel, cement etc? If steel prices go up by 40%, how will it affect an household (in the short term)?

Basantji,

As you said earlier this is the cost we have to pay for our democracy.

I believe there was a sure shot plan for early General election after the very soft & populist budget but ever since the budget the % rise in weekly inflation nos. were dramatically on rise & somehow become daily headlines on TV Channels & News Papers. (may be some one's motive not to allow Congress to take advantage)

Late decision on fuel price hike is mainly due to the Karnataka & General Election. Now there is a very less chance of General Election in near term they have no other alternative but to raise fuel price.

On other hand in the time of uncertainty on Crude Price & availability of Crude when Nuclear Technology is going to Must for fueling the growth of INDIA, all the parties are heading in different directions.

BJP's leaders are the happiest persons at the moment. Every Friday is like Diwali for them. This is the Darkest sides of our Democratic system.
