China fuel price rise to add 0.12 points to Nov CPI

In a statement in its website, www.ndrc.gov.cn, announcing the price increase, the agency said China was not facing inflation risks for now as inventories of grains and edible oils were ample.
As for major industrial products, either they are in oversupply or demand and supply are balanced, the NDRC added. ($1=6.826 Yuan) (Reporting by Aileen Wang and Alan Wheatley; Editing by Jonathan Hopfner)
