With record monsoon activity in September, this year's rainfall deficit has largely been recovered, which augurs well for industry in the upcoming months. However above normal rainfall in September has delayed harvesting in some parts of the country resulting in a two-to-four-week delay in the onset of the festive season demand. All other macroeconomic factors remain favourable. Inflation in various commodity prices continues to be an area of concern in the short term.
