A government data revealed that India`s wholesale prices fell for an 11th straight month in September, plunging an annual 4.54 percent.

The main reason for this is cited to be tumbling oil prices.

This 4.54% fall compares rather well with a 4.43 percent year-on-year decline forecast by economists and a provisional 4.95 percent fall in August.

The wholesale fuel prices fell 17.71 percent from a year ago. Prices of manufactured goods declined 1.73 percent on year in September.

Food prices, however, inched up 0.69 percent year-on-year last month.
