Consumer prices rose by 0.3 per cent month on month (MoM) in October.
The prices of energy products were 0.9 per cent lower YoY in October. The decline in energy prices, therefore, accelerated slightly again.
The inflation rate excluding energy stood at 2.5 per cent in October 2025, after 2.7 per cent in September.
Core inflation rate (excluding food and energy) remained at 2.8 per cent in October compared to 2.8 per cent in September 2025. Both rates demonstrate that inflation remained above average in other important product groups.
