Meanwhile, the annual price growth in electricity, heating, and housing for residential use was 3.2 percent in December versus 3.5 percent in November.

Core inflation, which excludes energy and unprocessed food, climbed to 1.5 percent from 1.2 percent.

On a monthly basis, consumer prices dropped at a stable rate of 0.3 percent.
