Conversely, a moderate price increase was recorded in textiles and select protein and pulse items, including shirting, lawn (printed fabric), pulse gram and beef-related products.<\/p>\n<p>The 0.69% decline in SPI was primarily driven by a notable reduction in prices of essential food items including tomatoes (22.77%), chicken (11.05%), onions (9.82%), garlic (8.85%), wheat flour (2.37%), potatoes (2.18%), mustard oil (0.95%), LPG (0.89%) and 1kg vegetable ghee (0.68%).<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, certain items registered a rise in prices during the same period.

A significant reduction was recorded in prices of onions (73.63%), tomatoes (52.75%), wheat flour (30.14%), garlic (28.94%), potatoes (20.92%), chilli powder (18.94%), branded tea (Lipton) (16.98%), chicken (15.17%), petrol (13.24%), Q1 electricity charges (12.66%) and diesel (10.85%).<\/p>\n<p>However, a notable annual increase was observed in prices of ladies&#8217; sandals (55.62%), pulse moong (27.21%), powdered milk (24.71%), pulse gram (21%), beef (19.06%), sugar (17.14%), 2.5kg vegetable ghee (15.75%), 1kg vegetable ghee (15.43%), cooked daal (13.40%), firewood (10.49%), shirting (10.28%) and lawn (printed fabric) (10.26%).<\/p>\n<p>SPI is compiled on a weekly basis to monitor short-term price fluctuations in essential commodities. It covers 51 items from 50 markets in 17 cities across the country, providing a timely snapshot of the inflationary pressures faced by consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Among income groups, all quintiles saw a WoW decrease, with Q1 and Q2 \u2013 representing the lowest income brackets \u2013 experiencing the highest decline of 0.80%. Q3 registered a 0.72% decrease, Q4 recorded a 0.73% drop and Q5 \u2013 the highest income group \u2013 exhibited a relatively smaller decline of 0.64%.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Listen\u00a0to\u00a0article KARACHI: The Sensitive Price Indicator (SPI) for the week ended April 17, 2025 recorded a notable decrease of 0.69% compared to the previous week, reflecting the downward trend in prices of several key food items.
