MUMBAI: India's core wholesale price index rose an estimated 4.85 percent in June from a year earlier, according to five analysts surveyed by Reuters on Monday, leaving it unchanged from the levels in May.

Traders had previously said core WPI growth of 4.5 percent or below could raise expectations for a cut in interest rates at the Reserve Bank of India policy review on July 31.
