What is Inflation?
A simple explanation for Indian investors — Wealth Simplified.
Quick Answer
Inflation is the rise in prices over time, which reduces how much the same amount of money can buy in the future.
Simple Explanation
₹100 today may buy less after several years of inflation.
How It Works
Price levels across goods and services tend to rise; central banks monitor this closely.
Why It Matters
Goals like education and retirement must account for higher future costs.
Simple Example
At 6% inflation, a ₹10 lakh goal today may cost much more in 15 years.
Common Misconception
Ignoring inflation can make a savings target look easier than it is.
