The Frontline Impact

How this affects you

The projected increase in inflation to 5% by FY27 and the likelihood of 50-75 basis point rate hikes could lead to higher borrowing costs and impact consumer spending. The conflict in West Asia and a below-normal monsoon are key factors driving these inflationary pressures. Escalating food prices, particularly vegetables, are also contributing to the overall inflation increase.
