The indices lent support today despite a rise in retail inflation as the finance ministry attributed it to base effect and stressed that initiatives taken by the government to curb price rise will be felt more significantly in the coming months, said Mohit Nigam, Head - PMS, Hem Securities. India's retail inflation rose to 7 per cent in August from 6.71 per cent the previous month due to a sharp rise in food prices, as per the government data released on Monday. Retail inflation has exceeded the Reserve Bank of India's 6 per cent tolerance band for the eighth consecutive month.
