May 12 (Reuters) - Spanish national consumer prices rose
4.1% in the 12 months through April, up from 3.3% in the period
through March, final data from the National Statistics Institute
showed on Friday.
The final reading confirmed the 4.1% flash estimate released
by INE two weeks ago.
Analysts polled by Reuters saw the 12-month inflation
through April also at 4.1%.
Core inflation, which strips out volatile fresh food and
energy prices, was 6.6% year on year, in line with the flash
estimate, INE said.
The 12-month European Union-harmonised price also confirmed
the flash estimate at 3.8%, INE said.
