Producer Price Indices in June 2009

Producer prices for manufactured products fell by 8.4 per cent, export prices by 9.6 per cent and import prices by 11.9 per cent from June 2008 to June 2009. The basic price index for domestic supply fell by 8.7 per cent in the year. The year-on-year change in the wholesale price index was -9.7 per cent.

Among the reasons for the fallen producer prices for manufactured products were reductions in the prices of oil products and metals from last year's June. The fall in the prices was curbed by risen prices of district heat.

From May to June producer prices for manufactured products rose by 0.4 per cent. The rise in prices was particularly attributable to increases in the prices of oil products and non-ferrous metals. The rise in prices was curbed by a fall in the price of fertilisers.
