Correct Option: C
Deflation is a situation where the prices of goods and commodities in a country go down. i.e., there is negative inflation. This is caused due to reduced supply of money/credit. Inflation reduces the real value of money over time; conversely, deflation increases the real value of money – the currency of a national or regional economy.
