This means that the general price level was 2.8 per cent higher in November 2024 than it was in November 2023. The price increase was mainly driven by the rise in prices of commodities under Food and Non-Alcoholic Beverages (4.5%); and Housing, Water, Electricity, Gas and other fuels (0.1%) between November 2023 and November 2024. However, the commodity prices in Transport sector declined by 1.1 per cent between November 2023 and November 2024.
