HYDERABAD, India (Reuters) - India's retail inflation still remains high despite the wholesale price-led inflation cooling off, Reserve Bank of India Governor Duvvuri Subbarao said on Friday.
He was speaking at an academic institution in the southern city of Hyderabad.
India's consumer price-led inflation was 9.39 percent in April, while the annual wholesale price-led inflation slipped below the crucial 5 percent threshold to 4.89 percent, also in April.
Subbarao also said that there were several upside risk factors to inflation and the central bank has to remain sensitive to these.
