India, Aug. 27 -- The unemployment rate in Japan came in at a seasonally adjusted 2.4 percent in July, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications said on Friday.

That was below expectations for 2.5 percent, which would have been unchanged.

The job-to-applicant ratio was 1.18 - unchanged from the previous month but shy of forecasts for 1.19.
