Headline inflation, or the overall consumer price index (CPI), also eased to 4.1 per cent from 4.5 per cent in June, led partly by lower private transport inflation.

MAS and MTI maintained their forecasts for overall inflation for 2023 at between 4.5% and 5.5%, while core inflation was pegged at between 3.5% and 4.5%.
