BUDAPEST, March 31 (Reuters) - Hungary's industrial
producer price inflation slowed to an annual 29% in
February from a revised 33.5% in January, the Central Statistics
Office (KSH) said on Friday.
Domestic prices rose 56.4% year-on-year in February, driven
by a significant price increase in the energy industry, as well
as higher raw materials prices and the weakening of the forint,
the KSH said. Export PPI growth came in at 15.8% year-on-year.
Overall, industrial producer prices dropped in February by
2.2% from the previous month.
