The annual price growth in unprocessed food eased to 4.8 percent from 5.6 percent. On the other hand, inflation-based regulated energy products accelerated to 3.0 percent from 2.7 percent, and those of processed food rose to 3.0 percent from 2.7 percent.

Excluding energy and unprocessed food, core inflation eased to 2.1 percent from 2.3 percent.

On a monthly basis, consumer prices dropped 0.2 percent in September, contrary to an expected increase of 0.2 percent.

Producer prices dropped 0.6 percent monthly in August, reversing a 0.5 percent increase in July. The decline was largely driven by 2.6 percent cheaper energy costs. The yearly price growth moderated to 0.2 percent from 1.6 percent.
