In fact the drop below 10% is actually a slowing down of Inflation.  The prices of primary articles \u2013 food, non-food articles and minerals \u2013 have gone up 17.45%, and the fuel and power prices have gone up 11.06%.  The manufactured goods are up by 4.59%.<\/p>\n<p>The RBI is under pressure to tighten its monetary policy.  Meanwhile, the 10 year bond yields have risen to the highest level in more than 5 months, with the fear of rising inflation.
