<keyword id="19895282" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mumbai" source="keywords">Mumbai</keyword>, The cost of a representative home-cooked vegetarian thali has witnessed a 5 per cent on-year increase in January, while that of the non-veg thali declined 13 per cent, a report said on Wednesday. According to <keyword id="20489875" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="crisil-market-intelligence-and-analytics" source="keywords">Crisil Market Intelligence and Analytics</keyword> (MI&amp;A) Research '<keyword id="20489770" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="rice-roti-rate" source="keywords">Rice Roti Rate</keyword>' estimates, the rise in prices of ingredients like pulses, rice, onion and tomato made home-cooked veg thali costlier in January, while decline in poultry rates helped in the fall in non-veg thali rates. The cost of the veg thali increased due to a surge of 35 per cent and 20 per cent year-on-year in prices of onion and tomato, respectively, said the report. Prices of rice (accounting for 12 per cent of the <keyword id="18314113" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="veg-thali-cost" source="Orion">veg thali cost</keyword>) and pulses (9 per cent) also increased by 14 per cent and 21 per cent y-o-y, respectively, it added. Meanwhile, the decline in the cost of the non-veg thali was due to a 26 per cent fall in broiler prices in January, compared to the same month last year, amid higher production, the report stated. However, sequentially, the cost of the veg and non-veg thalis fell 6 per cent and 8 per cent, respectively. The ease in cost was due to a decrease of 26 per cent and 16 per cent month-on-month prices of onion and tomato, respectively, with higher domestic supply of onion amid export curbs and fresh tomato arrivals from the northern and eastern states, the report said. The cost of the non-veg thali declined faster due to an 8-10 per cent month-on-month dip in prices of broilers, which account for 50 per cent of the cost, it added.

Rising tomato & pulse prices push up veg thali cost in January, but non-veg thali costs come down

New Delhi: The ongoing volatility in the prices of key food items such as tomatoes, onions, and potatoes (collectively known as TOP) and pulses continues to pose significant challenges for the <keyword id="19913109" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="monetary-policy-committee" source="keywords">Monetary Policy Committee</keyword> (MPC) of the <keyword id="19899810" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="reserve-bank-of-india" source="keywords">Reserve Bank of India</keyword> (<keyword id="19899808" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="RBI" source="keywords">RBI</keyword>), highlights a report by <keyword id="19898108" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="SBI" source="keywords">SBI</keyword>. "Current volatility in prices of TOP and pulses continues to challenge the MPC, keeping the headline above target at 5.1 per cent in June 2024," said the report. The report highlighted that this instability in <keyword id="19960157" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="food-prices" source="keywords">food prices</keyword> has kept the headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) <keyword id="19895000" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="inflation" source="keywords">inflation</keyword> above the targeted level, reaching 5.1 per cent in June 2024. While the inflationary pressures remain a concern, the report stated that there is hope on the horizon due to the currently above-normal <keyword id="19968257" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="monsoon" source="keywords">monsoon</keyword> and increased sowing activity, which are further supported by the potential onset of a La Nina event later in the year. "The currently above-normal monsoon and sowing, backed up by a potential La Nina event later, promise reprieve in later quarters," said the report. Importantly, the report added that it is now expected that the CPI will remain above the RBI's medium-term target of 4 per cent in all quarters up until the first quarter of FY26. This persistent overshoot highlights the ongoing inflationary pressures in the economy. "Notably, now the CPI is expected to be above RBI's target of 4 per cent in all quarters till Q1FY26," the report added. However, the report noted that the Monetary Policy Committee expects a moderation in inflation during the fourth quarter, which is anticipated to help keep the overall CPI projection for FY24 unchanged at 4.5 per cent. The SBI report also believes that the volatility in food prices, driven by uneven spatial and temporal distribution of monsoon rains, presents an upside risk to the current inflation projections. As a result, SBI maintains its CPI estimate for FY25 at 4.7 per cent year-on-year. In the latest MPC meeting on Wednesday, RBI Governor <keyword id="19913110" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="shaktikanta-das" source="keywords">Shaktikanta Das</keyword> said inflation will moderate from July onwards as the monsoon has improved and global food prices have shown signs of easing in July. Das said, "Global food prices showed signs of easing in the month of July after registering an increase since March 2024." A degree of relief in food inflation is expected from the pickup in southwest monsoon and healthy progress in Kharif sowing. Buffer stocks of cereals continue to be above the norms, according to RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das. Das added, "Assuming a normal monsoon and taking into account the 4.9 per cent inflation print, Q1 CPI inflation for the current financial year (2024-25) is projected at 4.5 per cent, with q2 at 4.4 per cent, Q3 at 4.7 per cent and Q4 at 4.3 per cent. CPI inflation for the first quarter of next financial year (Q1 2025-26) is projected at 4.4 per cent."

The company’s latest smartwatch has been placed below the company’s GTS 4 and GTR 4 smartwatches. It is a compact smartwatch that comes with a rectangular design. The watch boasts a host of features, including satellite connection for navigation, a voice assistant and Bluetooth calling support. Like a lot of devices launched recently, it also gets a touch of AI. We have been testing the Amazfit GTR 4 smartwatch for a few weeks now, and here is our detailed review of the smartwatch that will help you decide whether you should buy the smartwatch. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Amazfit Active price and availability" comment="subhead" text="Amazfit Active price and availability"><keyword id="20759784" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Amazfit-Active-price" source="Orion">Amazfit Active price</keyword> and availability</cmsannotation> The Amazfit Active is priced at ₹12,999 in India. The smartwatch is available in Lavender Purple, Midnight Black and Petal Pink colour options. It is available from Amazon India and authorised retail stores across the country.

The watch comes with an aluminium frame and a silicone strap, which help limit the weight to 24 grams. The smartwatch is available in three colour options – Lavender Purple, Midnight Black and Petal Pink. We tested the Midnight Black colour variant. <div type="image" title="Casing" msid="108067498" hostid="261" sizebytes="41234" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Amazfit Active casing&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> In terms of design, there’s nothing new and this design is something that we have already seen several times. It is to be noted that it’s not all aluminium – the smartwatch features a plastic casing. <div type="image" title="b" msid="108067535" hostid="261" sizebytes="44478" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The smartwatch features a button on the right side&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The smartwatch comes with a single button on the right side to launch the menu and perform actions. Alongside the button, it features a microphone that is useful for using the voice assistant and while calling. <div type="image" title="LEft" msid="108067595" hostid="261" sizebytes="49512" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The smartwatch features a speaker on the left side&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> On the left, it features a speaker, which again comes in handy while speaking to someone. <div type="image" title="Comfort" msid="108067610" hostid="261" sizebytes="150134" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The Amazfit Active is comfortable to wear&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Coming to the straps, the smartwatch comes with a skin-friendly strap. If you are bored with simple straps, you can also replace the strap on the watch and attach third-party straps. The existing straps are airy and comfortable to wear, so you don’t have to worry about that. Speaking about the strap, we felt that the locking mechanism was a bit tricky and will need some getting used to. <div type="image" title="Strap" msid="108067664" hostid="261" sizebytes="168100" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The strap locking mechanism&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> At the back, the watch features a plastic case that houses all the sensors and the magnetic pins for the charger. Coming to the display, the Amazfit Active features a 1.75-inch AMOLED display with a 390 x 450 pixels resolution. The display supports always-on capability and comes with a 2.5D scratch-resistant glass and anti-fingerprint coating, preventing finger smudges on display. <div type="image" title="Display" msid="108067734" hostid="261" sizebytes="167670" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Amazfit Active display&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> During our usage, we found the display to be responsive and offer vibrant visuals. It offers good visibility even in sunlight so you don’t have to worry about visibility. The watch felt slightly small on my hand. While it might not be an issue for people with small or medium hands, if you have a large hand, try the watch at an offline store before making the purchase. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Amazfit Active features" comment="subhead" text="Amazfit Active features">Amazfit Active features</cmsannotation> The Amazfit Active is a feature-packed smartwatch with a heart rate sensor and the company’s BioTracker 3.0 PPG biometric sensor that allows you to measure your blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) levels and stress levels, using heart rate variability. <div type="image" title="Rear" msid="108067283" hostid="261" sizebytes="53530" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Sensors at the back&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The watch can track activity, sleep levels, and cycles, has breathing exercises, tracks the female menstrual cycle, allows you to record voice memos, create to-do lists, and much more. It also comes with the company’s AI-powered Zepp coach that uses AI to answer your queries related to your fitness and workouts. The watch offers dozens of watch faces, offering you several options based on your preferences. It offers over 120 sports modes, allowing you to track your workouts and activities easily. While it is good to have so many options, apart from a couple of sports modes, you are unlikely to use the other options. The smartwatch comes with Bluetooth calling support, allowing you to answer and make calls using the smartwatch. You can also store music within the watch to play in while working out. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Amazfit Active performance and battery life" comment="subhead" text="Amazfit Active performance and battery life">Amazfit Active performance and battery life</cmsannotation> While the Amazfit Active offers a lot of features on paper, do these features translate well to real-world usage? We tested the watch and found that while some of the things work well, it has its share of misses as well. Starting with the health and activity tracking, we compared the numbers on the Amazfit Active with other smartwatches and a certified pulse oximeter to find out if there were any deviations. While the watch was close to the actual number, it was off by 1-2 points. The watch performed well in health tracking, showing accurate information. Even the sleep tracking feature works well, and we found that the sleep duration shown on the watch was accurate. The one-tap measuring feature works well and reveals your heart rate, stress levels and blood oxygen saturation in 45 seconds, giving you a quick overview of your health. This allows you to track some vital stats throughout the day by spending less than a minute each time. There was a slight deviation in activity tracking, such as the steps and distance covered. This is around 5%, which is not bad for a watch in this segment. Battery life is one of the most impressive things about the Amazfit Active. It is claimed to offer a battery life of up to 14 days on a single charge. During our usage, with regular activity tracking and always-on display enabled during the day, we were able to get around 12 days of battery life, which is quite good. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Software and application" comment="subhead" text="Software and application">Software and application</cmsannotation> The Amazfit Active runs on Zepp OS 2.0, and it is one of the few operating systems out there apart from Wear OS that feels good to use and does not feel clunky or laggy. Zepp is the companion app you will need to install to sync your data and manage the watch. It is available for both Android and iOS devices. The app has a clean interface and allows you to easily access your workout data and health information and manage the watch settings. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Verdict" comment="subhead" text="Verdict">Verdict</cmsannotation> The Amazfit Active is a good smartwatch if you are looking for a smartwatch that features a sleek design, a long battery life and are okay with the slight deviations in numbers. The watch’s lightweight design makes it a good option for both casual and formal use, which is one department where some of the company’s smartwatches such as the T-Rex series fail. The watch competes with the Fitbit Versa 2 which is priced similarly.

Amazfit Active smartwatch review – long battery life with a compact design

New Delhi, <keyword id="19955404" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="finance" source="keywords">Finance</keyword> Minister Nirmala <keyword id="19916494" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="sitharaman" source="keywords">Sitharaman</keyword> on Tuesday said the inflation has come down within the tolerance band as a result of the steps taken by the government to check price rise, especially in perishable commodities. Replying to a question in the <keyword id="19895369" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="rajya-sabha" source="keywords">Rajya Sabha</keyword>, Sitharaman said Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) is working with the government on de-humidification of onions through Gamma Rays to give it a longer shelf life. "The government is seized of the difficulties, which arise due to shortage of perishable goods, which are not grown in <keyword id="19895063" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="india" source="keywords">India</keyword>. The committee sits and reviews periodically, and the efforts have shown on the ground that inflation is now within the tolerable band," she said. India's retail inflation has declined from an average of 6.8 per cent in April-December 2022 to 5.5 per cent in the corresponding period of 2023. The retail inflation is now stable and within the notified tolerance band of 2 per cent to 6 per cent. The minister said that in order to check the volatility in prices of onion, the government has progressively increased its buffer size from 1 lakh metric tonnes (LMT) in 2020-21 to 7 LMT in 2023-24. As of February 3, 2024, a total of 6.32 LMT of onion was procured, and 3.96 LMT of Grade-A onion was released through retail sales, e-Nam auction and bulk sales. "Currently, steps are being taken so that the preservation of very highly perishable commodities, like onion, can be improved," she said, adding lots of steps have been taken by the government, particularly for meeting the shortage in supply of perishable goods. Sitharaman said India has imported 8.79 lakh metric tonnes of <keyword id="20059821" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="tur-dal" source="keywords">Tur Dal</keyword> and 15.14 lakh metric tonnes of Masoor Dal in calendar year 2023. Similarly, the country imported other dals and released them in the market. India has also brought the branded 'Bharat Dal' through which Chana Dal is made available at Rs 60/kg for one kg pack and Rs 55/kg for 30 kg packs. 2.97 lakh metric tonnes of Chana have been sold already as of January 30, 2024. 'Bharat Dal', which is coming at a concessional price, is available in all retail markets. "Since we don't grow enough pulses in the country and due to a shortfall in supply, prices of pulses normally keep fluctuating, for which, by analysing the crop estimates, we start tying up for imports," Sitharaman added. Retail inflation, based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI), in December 2023, stood at 5.69 per cent.
