Inflation decelerates in almost half of regions

Compared to August 2025, on average, prices decreased or remained unchanged in eight regions. Fruit and vegetables, dairy butter, and sunflower oil continued to cheapen. Prices for many non-food goods, namely fuel, medical goods, perfumes and cosmetics, were going up. Contrastingly, used cars, tools, and equipment continued to fall in price. Foreign travel prices increased again, and so did prices for education services, which is typical of September.

The Bank of Russia pursues tight monetary policy aimed at bringing inflation down to 4%. More details on inflation in each Russian region are available in the information and analytical materials.
