Producer Price Index (PPI) 2010=100, 2010:01–2013:04

Producer prices for manufactured products went down particularly due to reduced prices of oil products, manufacturing of basic metals and electronic appliances from last year's April. The falling of the prices was curbed especially by higher prices of electricity, district heating, food, and machinery and equipment.
From March to April, producer prices for manufactured goods went down by 0.6 per cent. The fall was mainly caused by lower prices of oil products and manufacturing of basic metals.
