NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India's annual retail inflation accelerated in November to a 15-month high of 4.88 percent, government data showed on Tuesday, mainly driven by faster rises in prices of food and fuel products.

Analysts polled by Reuters had forecast November's CPI inflation to rise to 4.20 percent from October's 3.58 percent.
