        "summary": "Bank Indonesia has reported that consumer price inflation for March 2026 remained within the targeted range of 2.5\u00b11%, with a monthly rate of 0.41% and an annual rate of 3.48%, down from the previous month's 4.76%. This stability is attributed to consistent monetary policies, strong coordination between Bank Indonesia and central and local governments through inflation control teams, and enhanced implementation of the National Food Resilience Programme. Core inflation and volatile food prices also showed controlled increases, supporting expectations of sustained inflation within targets for 2026 and 2027.",
        "content": "<p>Bank Indonesia has affirmed that the Consumer Price Index (CPI)\ninflation for March 2026 remained stable or within the targeted range of\n2.5\u00b11%. According to data from the Central Statistics Agency, the CPI\nfor March 2026 recorded inflation of 0.41% (month-to-month), resulting\nin an annual CPI inflation of 3.48% (year-on-year), a decrease compared\nto the previous month\u2019s realisation of 4.76% (yoy). \u201cThe inflation that\nremains stable within its target range is the result of consistent\nmonetary policy as well as close synergy in inflation control between\nBank Indonesia and the Government (central and regional) in the Central\nand Regional Inflation Control Teams (TPIP and TPID) and the\nstrengthening of the implementation of the National Food Resilience\nProgramme,\u201d stated Executive Director of the Communications Department,\nRamdan Denny Prakoso, in his statement on Thursday, 2 April 2026. He\nrevealed that core inflation for March 2026 was also controlled at 0.13%\n(mtm), lower than the previous month\u2019s 0.42% (mtm). The development of\ncore inflation was primarily influenced by the decline in global gold\ncommodity prices and stable inflation expectations, amid increased\ndemand during the National Religious Holiday (HBKN) of Eid al-Fitr. On\nan annual basis, core inflation for March 2026 was recorded at 2.52%\n(yoy), down from the previous month\u2019s 2.63% (yoy). Inflation in the\nvolatile food group remained stable. The volatile food group in March\n2026 experienced inflation of 1.58% (mtm), a decrease compared to the\nprevious month\u2019s 2.50% (mtm). Inflation in the volatile food group was\nprimarily contributed by commodities such as broiler chicken meat, rice,\nand broiler eggs, in line with increased demand during the HBKN Eid\nal-Fitr period. On an annual basis, the volatile food group experienced\ninflation of 4.24% (yoy), lower than the previous month\u2019s 4.64% (yoy).\nLooking ahead, volatile food inflation is projected to remain\ncontrolled, supported by close synergy between Bank Indonesia and TPIP\nand TPID as well as the strengthening of the implementation of the Food\nSecurity Inflation Control Movement (GPIPS). \u201cLooking ahead, Bank\nIndonesia is confident that inflation will remain controlled within the\ntarget range of 2.5\u00b11% in 2026 and 2027,\u201d he stated. The administered\nprices group recorded inflation. The administered prices group in March\n2026 experienced inflation of 0.31% (mtm), an increase compared to the\nprevious month\u2019s deflation of 0.03% (mtm).<\/p>",
