Abstract: We realize smooth hybrid inflation in the framework of supersymmetric $SU(5)imesU(1{)}_{chi}subsetSO(10)$ model which provides a natural solution to the monopole problem appearing in the spontaneous symmetry breaking of $SU(5)$. The breaking of $U(1{)}_{chi}$ symmetry leaves a residual discrete $Z_2$ symmetry, that serves as the MSSM matter parity, realizing the possibility of the lightest supersymmetric particle as a cold dark matter candidate. The $d=5$ proton lifetime for the decay $$, mediated by color-triplet Higgsinos is found to satisfy current experimental bounds if split-high scale SUSY scenario is employed. We show that with minimal K"ahler potential, the soft supersymmetry breaking terms play a vital r^ole in bringing the scalar spectral index $n_s$ within the Planck's latest bounds. In a minimal K"ahler potential setup, small values of tensor-to-scalar ratio $rlesssim3.5imes10^{-7}$ are obtained, whereas the gravitino mass turns out to be in the range that favors PeV scale SUSY but is not sufficiently high to avoid the $d=5$ proton decay. A non-minimal K"ahler potential including higher-order corrections is required to realize successful inflation with central value of scalar spectral index $n_s=0.9655$, large tensor modes $rlesssim0.056$ and a low reheat temperature $(3imes10^{6}lesssim{T}_{r}lesssim6.5imes10^7)$ GeV consistent with leptogenesis and baryogenesis.
