What is Inflation?

Inflation is the rate at which the general level of prices for goods and services rises, eroding purchasing power over time. When inflation is high, your money buys fewer goods and services than it did before.

With a 6% annual inflation rate, your current amount of ₹10,00,000 will be worth ₹0 in 10 years, but its purchasing power will be equivalent to only ₹10,00,000 in today's money.
