He Consumer price index (CPI) has fallen to 3.3% in March compared to the same month last year, according to data released today by the National Institute of Statistics (INE). Year-on-year inflation was 6% in February, 2.7 points less than in March.

Despite the drop in year-on-year inflation, prices continue to rise.

In monthly terms, from february to marchthe CPI has registered a 0.4% increase.

The Underlying inflation, which does not count unprocessed food or energy products, has fallen by one tenth in its interannual rate to 7.5%. Even so, its difference with the general CPI is 4.2 points. In monthly terms the increase has been 0.7 points.

The advance data for March must be confirmed by INE in the middle of next month.
