Fashion pulse: Indonesia - March 2026

Consumer prices (March 2026)

Headline consumer-price inflation in Indonesia eased to 3.48 percent year-on-year in March, according to Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS), returning within Bank Indonesia’s 1.5 to 3.5 percent target range after February’s 4.76 percent spike. The February jump was largely a base effect, as a 2025 electricity tariff discount programme dropped out of the 12-month comparison window. Clothing and footwear inflation remains effectively flat at 0.65 percent year-on-year in March, down marginally from 0.73 percent in February, per BPS. Indonesian clothing prices have been broadly stable through early 2026 — a pattern consistent with developing-Asia peers where fashion inflation runs well below headline.
