The producer price index rose 9.6 percent year-on-year in March, following a 8.1 percent increase February.
The development of prices was influenced by weakening of the forint against the euro and by the price rise of raw and base materials, the agency said.

On a monthly basis, producer prices rose 1.9 percent in March.
