<h1>Economic Survey 2011-12 Projects WPI Inflation Drop to 6.5-7% by March 2012, Highlights Supply-Side Measures for Stability.</h1> The Economic Survey 2011-12 anticipates a moderation in inflation, expecting the Wholesale Price Index to reach 6.5 to 7 percent by March 2012, with further easing in 2012-13 due to tightened monetary policy and government measures. The gap between WPI and CPI inflation has narrowed, largely due to a decline in food inflation driven by lower prices in fruits, vegetables, and cereals. The Survey highlights the importance of supply-side measures and fiscal consolidation for sustained price stability, while acknowledging the challenges posed by global economic uncertainties and the need for vigilant monetary policy to manage inflationary expectations.
