  • Balance both sides – Explain why inflation fell (base effect, good monsoon, easing fuel prices) and what concerns remain (high edible oil inflation, monsoon risks).
  • Conclude with policy insight – Link your conclusion to RBI’s monetary policy and household welfare, showing awareness of both macro and micro impacts.
