Bangladesh’s annual inflation rate rose to 9.13% in February 2026, up from 8.58% in January, reaching its highest level since April 2025. The acceleration was driven primarily by faster price increases in several categories: food and non-alcoholic beverages (9.30% vs 8.29% in January), alcoholic beverages, tobacco and narcotics (8.43% vs 8.40%), miscellaneous goods and services (24.04% vs 21.06%), clothing and footwear (11.03% vs 11.00%), transportation (6.65% vs 6.55%), communication (8.13% vs 8.04%), and education (7.54% vs 7.38%).

In contrast, inflation eased slightly in housing and utilities (8.42% vs 8.48%), furnishings, household equipment and routine household maintenance (6.02% vs 6.60%), restaurants and hotels (8.93% vs 9.14%), and health (3.66% vs 3.69%). On a monthly basis, consumer prices increased by 0.36% in February, compared with a 0.23% rise in January.
