NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India's consumer price inflation eased to a four-month low of 4.87 percent in April, on slower annual increases in food costs, government data showed on Tuesday.

The data compared with a 4.90 percent annual rise predicted by analysts in a Reuters poll and March's upwardly revised 5.25 percent print.

Consumer food price inflation dropped to 5.11 percent last month from 6.14 percent in March.
