What is Hyperinflation ?

Definition:

Hyperinflation is a situation where the price increases are too sharp.
Hyperinflation often occurs when there is a large increase in the money supply, which is not supported by growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
Such a situation results in an imbalance in the supply and demand for the money. In this this remains unchecked; it results into sharp increase in prices and depreciation of the domestic currency.
