In July, the prices for home-cooked thalis surged compared to the previous year, with vegetarian options increasing by four percent and non-vegetarian increasing by nine percent. The rise in costs was driven by expensive onions, vegetable oil, and LPG for vegetarian meals, while non-vegetarian thalis were notably affected by higher broiler chicken prices. Nevertheless, the decline in potato and tomato prices somewhat alleviated these overall increases.
