Data also showed that core inflation softened to 1.8 percent from 1.9 percent.

The annual price growth in transport charges slowed to 1.1 percent from 1.3 percent. Meanwhile, clothing and foot wear prices dropped 0.3 percent.

Housing and utility costs grew at a stable rate of 3.1 percent annually, and prices for food and non-alcoholic beverages rose by 1.6 percent.
