Event Summary

SBI Research released a report detailing the impact of Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate rationalization on India's retail inflation. The report estimates that GST reforms have reduced the Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation by 25 basis points (bps) between September and November 2025, with a total projected reduction of 35 bps in 2025-26. This positive impact is partially offset by the depreciation of the India — Indian rupee, which is expected to increase overall inflation. Despite these projections, the State Bank of India is not anticipated to alter its interest rate stance in the upcoming February monetary policy review. The report also highlighted regional variations, noting India — Kerala's higher inflation rate driven by specific commodity prices.
