CONCEPT OFINFLATIONInflation is a global phenomenon in a present time. Itis one of the most crucial macroeconomic problem formany countries in the world. Inflation is an increase in
the overall price level. It happens when many pricesincrease simultaneously.
KEYNES-Inflation as a phenomenon of full employment.
CROWTHER-Inflation is a state in which the value ofmoney is falling and prices are rising.

ON THE BASIS OF SPEEDCreeping inflation:When there is price
rise by not more than 3% per annum, thesituation is called creping inflation.
Walking inflation:When creepinginflation continues over a decade and pricerise from 3-4% per annum, it is calledwalking inflation.
Running inflation:It would record a
100% rise in general price level over aperiod of 10 years.
Hyper inflation:It is an indicator ofserious problem. In it,price rise every
moment and every second.

ON THE BASIS OFNATUREOpen inflation: It takes place when
increase in price due to lack of any controlon expenditure when income increases. It
follows the symptom of prosperity.

INTRODUCTION TO PULSES The name pulse is derived from the Latin puls
meaning thick soup or potage. Many early civilizations developed around diets of
pulses for protein, combined with a cereal crop toprovide energy. Beans and corn are the example
from the Americas, while pita and humus (chickpeabased) are a Middle Eastern illustration.
Pulses are unique among grain crops in their abilityto partner with certain soil bacteria to take
nitrogen, an essential plant nutrient, from the airand turn it in to a form that can be used by plants.
Pulses are the edible seeds of legumes, like lentils,beans, peas and chickpeas. Each of these pulse crops
come in a wide range of colors and sizes.

OBJECTIVES OF THESTUDYTo compute the inflation rates of pulses.
To identify the main causes of inflation in
pulses.To study the effects of inflation.
To identify the measures of inflationcontrol.
To analyze the trends of price rise ofpulses.

PROBLEM OF THESTUDYPulses are the major constituent of Nepalesediet and thus the rise and fall in the price ofpulses greatly affects the household economy.There are different reasons leading to the
inflationary rises in price of pulses. Finding outprice rises in pulses by the computation ofinflation rates may be an effective way totrace out the trends of theirconsumption.Therefore , the study is done in
order to extract adequate knowledge on therate of inflation of pulses in the past fewyears along with the causes and measures tocontrol them.

LIMITATIONS OF THESTUDYHigh frequency data (e.g. monthly,
quarterly etc.) are not used in this studybecause of unavailability of some of the
data. Annual data is used.
Since only the case of pulses isconsidered, a valid generalization of theconclusions drawn cannot be expected.

COMPARATIVE DATA
ANALYSIS
The inflation rate of pulses in Nepal during the last 15years is in the state of fluctuation as we can see that in1996/1997, the inflation rate is3.3% and in 1997/1998, it is2.42%.
Similarly in 1998/1999 and in 1999/2000, the inflationrates of pulses in Nepal are 16.87% and -2.46%respectively.
Similarly, the inflation rates during the second 5 years i. e2000/2001, 2001/2002, 2002/2003, 2003/2004 and2004/2005 are 4.695, -2.665,1.45%, -1.045 and 4.73respectively.
The inflation rate of pulses in Nepal in 2005/2006,
2006/2007, 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 are 21.745,18.06%, 8.265 and 23.69% respectively.

FINDINGS During our research on the rate of inflation in
the prices of pulses, we visited many places
where we can get the accurate results. In comparison to otherfood products
(cereals), pulse is one with a great stability inthe price fluctuation is 10 to 20%.
The longest period of stability of price
remained for the second quarter and a monthin 2010, i.e, (May-Sep) where the retail priceremained Rs.120/kg in Kathmandu valley.
But still, during the year 2010,the pricefluctuation was recorded to be 20% in
Kathmandu. While comparing the urban CPI, the price isstable more in Terai than in Hills.

CONCLUSION No doubt, inflation in Nepal has hit severely on
the stomach of Nepalese people, low-income class,generally.
But the effect of inflation in pulses is relativelyless in comparison to other food items. This
implies the sporadic inflation in Nepalese cerealsmarket. Though a small change in price alters the
consumption pattern of the low-income people,pulse has not raised their cost of living
significantly. But anyway inflation is inflation. However, the
inflation in case of pulse can be considered asmoderate, which comprises the factor to operatethe economy smoothly.
