The rise of producer prices for manufactured products was particularly attributable to higher prices of copper, electricity and oil products from last year's July. The rise was curbed by lower prices of electrical products.

From June to July producer prices for manufactured products rose by 0.9 per cent. The rise was mainly due to higher prices of basic metals and oil products.
