November inflation numbers were on expected lines at 5.5%.

This means that the broad inflation story remains the same. Food is what is keeping it above RBI's target of 4%, and its future trajectory will largely be determined by movement in food prices. What happens to them is largely a function of how the climate rather than economy behaves going forward.
