Most of India’s population foods include non-veg, although it is believed that most people in India eat veg food. Well, this news is going to bring good news for both vegetarian and non-vegetarian people. Wage food and non-veg food have become cheaper in the country. A report by the rating agency Crisil Market Intelligence and Analysis has revealed in the month of February, both veg and non-veg prices have come down.
This report, named Roti Rice Price, states that the cost of veg plate has come down due to the decrease in the prices of onion-to-tomatoes. At the same time, the non-veg plate has become cheaper due to the fall of the broiler chicken.
Such reduced veg, non-veg plate prices
According to the report, the cost of vegetarian and non-vegetarian plate has decreased by five percent in February in February. The reason for this is the decrease in the prices of vegetable and broiler. After the new crop of onion, potatoes and tomatoes, their prices have fallen by 7 percent, 17 percent and 25 percent respectively.
At the same time, due to the possibility of ‘bird flu’ in South India, the demand for chicken has fallen. Due to this, the prices of broiler chicken have also fallen by about 5 percent. Research director P. Sharma in Crisil Intelligence says that the price of vegetarian plate is due to the fall in the price of vegetables, especially onions, tomatoes and potato prices. At the same time, in the case of non-veg plate, the decrease in the price of broiler has reduced the price.
This difference came in prices on an annual basis
If compared to the figures of last year’s February, the cost of the veg plate cooked in the house has declined by one percent in February. While the price of non-veg plate has increased by about 6 percent. On the annual basis, the price of tomatoes and LPG (LPG) cylinders has the highest impact on the price of vegetarian plate. Their prices have reduced considerably. The price of tomatoes has come down by 28 percent to Rs 23 per kg on an annual basis, which was around Rs 32 per kg a year ago. After the new crop this year, the arrival of Tamatar has increased by 20 percent.
At the same time, the price of non-veg plate has increased by 15 percent on an annual basis. The main reason for this is the increase in the price of the broiler. Broiler accounts for about 50 percent in the cost of non -vegetarian plate. The rise in its price is also seen more, because last year its price was very low. The increased price of fodder due to an annual increase in the price of maize 6 percent has also contributed to increasing the price of non-veg plate.
Crisil says that the average cost of preparing a plate at home has been calculated based on the price of raw materials prevalent in North, South, East and West India.
