The export price index rose by 7.5 per cent and the import price index by 10.9 per cent in the year. The basic price index for domestic supply went up by 8.0 per cent and the year-on-year change in the wholesale price index was 10.6 per cent.

The rise in the producer prices for manufactured products was particularly caused by increased prices of metals, oil products and pulp from the previous year's February. The rise was especially curbed by falls in the prices of electricity and electronic products.

From January to February, producer prices for manufactured goods went up by 0.9 per cent. The rise was mainly caused by increases in the prices of production and distribution of heat and oil products.
