The All-India CPI-IW for February 2022 decreased by 0.1 points to 125 points from 125.1 points in January this year.

Retail inflation for industrial workers eased to 5.04 per cent in February from 5.84 per cent in January this year mainly due to lower prices of certain food items. Inflation based on the consumer price index for industrial workers (CPI-IW) was at 4.48 per cent in February 2021, a labour ministry statement said.

Food inflation stood at 5.09 per cent in February 2022 against 6.22 per cent in the previous month and 4.64 per cent during the corresponding month a year ago.

Based on the All-India CPI-IW numbers, it is expected that the AAll-India CPI-IW Dearness Allowance or the DA for central government employees from July 2022 will be 37%.
