FX.co ★ Indonesia’s Inflation Cools to 3.48% in March, Easing from February Peak

Indonesia’s annual inflation eased to 3.48% in March 2026, down from 4.76% in February, according to the latest data updated on 1 April 2026. The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, measuring price changes in March 2026 against March 2025, while the previous reading reflected changes in February 2026 relative to February 2025.

The pullback from February’s higher rate suggests some relief in price pressures across the Indonesian economy as the pace of annual increases in the cost of goods and services moderates. While inflation remains a key indicator for policymakers, the latest reading may signal a more favorable environment for consumers and businesses after the sharper rise seen earlier in the year.

Market participants and analysts will be watching upcoming releases closely to see whether March’s slowdown marks the start of a more sustained disinflation trend or a temporary easing following February’s spike, as it could influence expectations for monetary policy and broader economic conditions in Indonesia.
