Latest figures
The latest release for OCT, published on 2 November 2026, came in at 0.22%, below the consensus of 0.25%, down from 0.3% the time before.
A lower figure than expected gives Bank Indonesia room to cut or hold rates lower: the Indonesian rupiah tends to soften and bond yields to fall.
Over the last 12 releases it ranged from -0.15% to 0.68%, averaging 0.27%.

Why it matters
The monthly change is the freshest reading of price pressure: the yearly rate is the sum of the last twelve monthly changes, so today's monthly figure tells you where the yearly rate is heading.
How it is calculated
Statistics Indonesia (BPS) prices a fixed basket of goods and services across the country and compares the index with the previous period. Seasonal patterns (sales, holidays) make raw monthly figures jumpy; some countries also publish seasonally adjusted numbers.
Monthly inflation = index(this month) ÷ index(last month) − 1
Annualised ≈ (1 + monthly)¹² − 1What changes mean
- Compare with the same month in earlier years: January and September often have seasonal jumps.
- 0.2% a month is about the 2% a year most central banks aim for.
Higher than expected: A higher figure than expected makes Bank Indonesia more likely to keep rates high or raise them: it tends to support the Indonesian rupiah and push bond yields up, and is often a weight on stocks.
Lower than expected: A lower figure than expected gives Bank Indonesia room to cut or hold rates lower: the Indonesian rupiah tends to soften and bond yields to fall.
A short history
Monthly price indexes date from the early 20th century; many countries began publishing them during or after the First World War to adjust wages to the cost of living.
