Consumer prices rose at the fastest pace in 15 months in October.

According to the Ministry of Data and Statistics on Tuesday, the country’s consumer price index stood at 117-point-42 in October, up two-point-four percent from a year earlier.

The figure marks the largest gain since July of last year, when the index increased two-point-six percent.

The prices of agricultural, livestock and fishery products rose two-point-three percent, adding a quarter of a percentage point to overall inflation.

Processed foods and petroleum products also climbed three-and-a-half percent and four-point-eight percent, respectively, further driving the broader increase.

Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, grew two-point-two percent in October from a year earlier.
