The key benchmark indices declined in choppy trade, mimicking volatile European stocks. Reports that rains were 24% below normal in the week to 14 July 2010, also weighed on sentiments.

Fuel price inflation eased from the previous week's annual rise of 18.02% while the pace of food price inflation edged up marginally from last week's 12.63%.

Agency reports on Thursday, 15 July 2010, said monsoon rains were 24% below normal in the week to 14 July 2010. It may be recalled that revival of monsoon rains last week had helped accelerate the planting of rice, oilseeds and cotton. The area under rice cultivation jumped 56% to 7.2 million hectares on 9 July 2010 while cotton planting rose by half, last week, compared with a week before. Rainfall was 16% below average in June 2010. The shortfall had narrowed to 10% last week.

The Southwest monsoon was vigorous over Chhattisgarh and active over Andaman & Nicobar Islands during past 24 hours, India Meteorological Department (IMD) said in its daily update on Wednesday, 14 July 2010. The IMD expects widespread rain/thundershowers in East Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Sub-Himalayan West Bengal & Sikkim in the near term. Fairly widespread rainfall would occur over Orissa, Gangetic West Bengal, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Vidarbha, Northeastern States, West Madhya Pradesh, Andaman & Nicobar Islands and Lakshadweep, the IMD said.

Fairly widespread rain/thundershowers would occur over west coast and scattered over Gujarat region, Madhya Maharashtra, Marathwada and South interior Karnataka, the IMD added. Isolated rain/thundershowers would occur over West Uttar Pradesh during next 24 hours and increase thereafter, it added.

The south west monsoon is important for India as about 60% of the country's farmlands are rain-fed and more than half of the workforce is employed in the agriculture sector. The weather office expects this year's monsoon rains to be at 102% of the long-period average. Good monsoon rains would help raise farm output, boost rural incomes and lower food inflation.
