CRISIL’s recent analysis reveals that the cost of a vegetarian thali in India saw a 1% decrease in February compared to the previous year, primarily attributed to the decline in tomato and LPG prices. On the flip side, the cost of a non-vegetarian thali experienced a 6% increase during the same period, mainly due to the surge in broiler (chicken) prices. This fluctuation in food prices is crucial for Indian consumers to consider when planning their meals and budgeting. The trends uncovered by CRISIL shed light on the impact of commodity prices on everyday expenses, particularly in the context of the ongoing economic challenges faced by many households in the country.
