The Consumer Price Index (IPC), which measures retail, had the lowest accumulated price increase in the year: 4.28%.
In December, the IGP-DI had a price increase of 0.31%, a rate higher than that observed in November, when a deflation of 0.18% was registered. The three subindices had inflation in the month: IPA (0.32%), IPC (0.35%) and INCC (0.99%).
