Mauritius recorded an acceleration in consumer price inflation in August 2026, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 4.90% year-on-year, up from 4.40% in July 2026. The latest data, updated on 7 September 2026, indicate that price pressures strengthened slightly heading into the latter part of the year.

Both the current and previous readings are measured on a year-over-year basis, meaning the August figure reflects the change in prices compared with August a year earlier, while the July figure reflects the change versus July a year earlier. The uptick from 4.40% to 4.90% suggests a modest but notable firming in inflation momentum, which could draw attention from policymakers and investors monitoring the trajectory of living costs in the Mauritian economy.
