2026.04.1506:45:00UTC+00French HICP Accelerates to 1.1% MoM in March 2026, Up from 0.7%

France’s Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) rose at a faster pace in March 2026, with month-over-month growth picking up to 1.1%, compared with a 0.7% increase in the previous month.

Both the previous and current readings are reported for March 2026, but they capture different comparison baselines. The “previous” figure of 0.7% reflects the change in prices from January to February 2026, while the “actual” 1.1% reading shows the change from February to March 2026, indicating a clear acceleration in inflation momentum on a month-over-month basis.

The data, updated on 15 April 2026, underscores a strengthening price trend within the euro area’s second-largest economy, as measured by the EU-harmonised gauge that allows cross-country comparisons within the bloc.
