Inflation Expectations Survey of Households: December 2013 (Round 34)
The Inflation Expectations Survey of Households for the October-December 2013 quarter (34th round) captures the inflation expectations of 4,907 urban households across 16 cities, for the next three-month and the next one-year period. These expectations are based on their individual consumption baskets and hence these rates should not be considered as predictors of any official measure of inflation. The households’ inflation expectations provide useful directional information on near-term inflationary pressures and also supplement other economic indicators to get a better indication of future inflation.
