Price of veg thali increased due to tomato, potato and onion
According to CRISIL report, this growth in the cost of veg thali has been seen due to increase in the prices of tomato (30%), potato (59%) and onion (46%) on annual basis.
There has also been an increase in the prices of tomato (29%), potato (9%) and onion (15%) on monthly basis. CRISIL said that prices of rice (13%) and pulses (22%) have also seen an increase on an annual basis.
The price of non veg thali decreased due to fall in the price of chicken.
This decline in the price of non-veg thali has come due to 14% decline in the price of broilers i.e. chicken on annual basis. However, the price of chicken has increased by 1% on a monthly basis. The broiler accounts for 50% of the cost of a non-veg thali.
This is how the average cost of a thali is calculated.
- CRISIL has calculated the average cost of preparing a thali at home based on current food prices in North, South, East and West India. Monthly changes affect the expenses of the common man.
- CRISIL data also reveals the ingredients that drive changes in the price of a thali, including cereals, pulses, broilers (chicken), vegetables, spices, edible oil and cooking gas.
- Veg thali consists of roti, vegetables (onion, tomato and potato), rice, dal, curd and salad. Whereas for non-veg thali, chicken has been included instead of lentils.
