We investigate the inflationary paradigm and the associated primordial perturbations within the framework of $κ$-deformed non-commutative space-time. By constructing a scalar field theory invariant under the $κ$-Poincaré algebra, we derive the deformed oscillator algebra for the field modes of the primordial perturbations resulting in the non-trivial scale dependent modification of both the scalar and tensor power spectra. Further, we compute the corresponding $κ$-deformed corrections to the scalar spectral index and its running, finding that the $κ$-deformation naturally provides a higher value for spectral index which offers a potential resolution to the discrepancy between the values reported by PLANCK and ACT. Finally we perform a comprehensive Bayesian analysis using the latest ACT DR6 data, constraining the $κ$-deformed non-commutative length scale to $λ=2.17^{+2.33}_{-1.53}\times 10^{-30}m$ at the $1σ$ confidence level, suggesting the precision cosmology as a powerful probe of quantum gravity phenomenology.
