Q. Inflation targeting has limits in a supply-shock economy. Discuss. (10 marks)

Intro — RBI's 4±2% mandate assumes demand-driven inflation.

Body — 1) Food & fuel shocks are supply-side; rate hikes cost growth.

2) Core vs headline divergence (cite MPC minutes). 3) Fiscal-monetary coordination.

Conclusion — link to Viksit Bharat 2047.
