On the contrary, the prices of Regulated energy products (from +31.4% to +27.3%) and of Services related to transport (from +1.9% to +1.6%) slowed down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In March 2025, core inflation (excluding energy and unprocessed food) was stable at +1.7% and inflation excluding energy was +1.8% (up from +1.7% in the previous month).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for Goods, the year on year growth rate was +1.7% (from +1.1% in February) and for Services the annual rate of change was +2.4% (the same as the previous month). As a consequence, the inflationary gap between Services and Goods decreased (from +1.3 percentage points in February to +0.7).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The prices of Grocery and unprocessed food increased by 0.1 on monthly basis and by 2.1% on annual basis (up from +2.0% in the previous month).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The increase on monthly basis of NIC was mainly due to the prices of Non-regulated energy products and of Services related to transport (+1.2% both), of Tobaco and of Services related to recreation, including repair and personal care (+0.5% both) and of Services related to communication (+0.3%); whose growth was offset by the decrease of prices of Regulated energy products (-2.4%) and of Unprocessed food (-0.4%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In March 2025, according to preliminary estimates, the Italian harmonised index of consumer prices (HICP) increased by 1.6% on monthly basis, mainly due to the end of the winter sales of Clothing and footwear (not considered by NIC), and by 2.1% on annual basis (from +1.7% in February).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In March 2025 the CPI +0.4% on the previous month and +2.0% year-over-year <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4082],"tags":[3563,3186,3270,3264,3256,3468,2968],"regione":[],"tema":[4039],"class_list":["post-91498","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press-release","tag-consumer-prices","tag-consumptions","tag-cpi","tag-hicp","tag-inflation","tag-price","tag-flash","tema-prices"],"meta_fields":{"data_pubblicazione":"","descrizioneperiodo":"","titolobreve":"","news":"","news_rss":"","sottotitolo":""},"acf":[],"wpml_current_locale":"en_US","wpml_translations":[],"tags-info":[{"id":3563,"label":"consumer prices","slug":"consumer-prices"},{"id":3186,"label":"consumptions","slug":"consumptions"},{"id":3270,"label":"CPI","slug":"cpi"},{"id":3264,"label":"HICP","slug":"hicp"},{"id":3256,"label":"inflation","slug":"inflation"},{"id":3468,"label":"price","slug":"price"},{"id":2968,"label":"statistics flash","slug":"flash"}],"categories-info":[{"id":4082,"label":"Press release","slug":"press-release"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91498","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/21"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91498"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91498\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":91543,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91498\/revisions\/91543"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91498"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91498"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91498"},{"taxonomy":"regione","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/regione?post=91498"},{"taxonomy":"tema","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.istat.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tema?post=91498"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
