Wholesale price inflation set to rise as crude oil surge pushes wholesale costs higher, affecting manufacturing and non-food goods.
Wholesale price inflation rose to 2.13% in February 2026, led by higher prices in food and non-food articles and an uptick in manufactured goods; fuel and power deflation narrowed as global oil prices increased.

The report identifies basic metals, textiles and other manufacturing segments as contributors and stresses supply-chain, logistics and domestic manufacturing measures to contain cost-push pressures.
