NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India needs to aim for a non-inflationary economic recovery, the minister of state for finance said on Tuesday.
Speaking at an industry event, Jayant Sinha also said India needs to aim for non-inflationary economic growth of 7-8 percent.
India's annual consumer price inflation accelerated for the first time in five months in December to 5.0 percent, driven by higher food costs.
