India, July 31 -- Austria's consumer price inflation moderated in July to the lowest level in five months amid a slight fall in food prices, flash data from Statistics Austria showed on Friday.

The consumer price index climbed 2.7 percent year-over-year in July, slower than the 3.2 percent increase in June. Moreover, this was the lowest inflation rate since February, when prices rose 2.2 percent.

The slowdown in inflation in July was largely due to a 0.1 percent fall in food prices, which grew 1.5 percent in June.
