Mauritius' Consumer Price Index (CPI) has shown a decline, with the annual rate falling to 4.40% in September 2025, down from the 4.80% recorded in August 2025. This data, updated on 07 October 2025, reflects a favorable shift in the country's inflation landscape, offering some respite to consumers and policymakers alike.

This year-over-year comparison elucidates the changes in prices for a typical basket of goods and services in Mauritius, providing a comprehensive gauge of inflation trends. The decline observed in September marks a notable economic trend, possibly influenced by various internal and external economic factors, including changes in demand, supply chain adjustments, or fiscal policies.

The CPI is a crucial indicator that helps understand the purchasing power of Mauritian consumers and the overall economic health. As the country navigates the complexities of the global financial environment, this reduction in the inflation rate suggests positive momentum which might signal stabilizing conditions for businesses and households in Mauritius. Economists and policymakers will keenly watch whether this trend continues in the coming months.
