While INDEC reorganizes its statistical programs, it has suspended its own national CPI and is instead republishing consumer price measures collated by the regional statistical offices of Buenos Aires (capital district) and San Luis (province).

Figures are percent change from previous month (% M/M) or previous year (% Y/Y), not seasonally adjusted (NSA).  They start as early as January 2012.

These new series reside in the historical catalog (Argentina » Price » Consumer Price Index) and includes, for example:

• CP%TTZ1YUM.IARG = Consumer price index [IPC-BA], (% Y/Y, NSA) - Buenos Aires
• CP%TTZ2MUM.IARG = Consumer price index [IPC-SL], (% M/M, NSA) - San Luis

The national series for which they are substituting is:

• CPITTUM.IARG = Consumer price index, (Index Oct13-Sep14=100, NSA)

Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.

Please be aware that:

• As reported, these measures are not fixed-base indexes, although an index may be constructed from them.
• Although they are, strictly speaking, subnational in scope, we have assigned the national geo code.
• The national CPI CPITTUM.IARG has been suspended until further notice; it runs from January 1943 to October 2015. We (Moody's Analytics) have not marked its metadata as "discontinued" and will revive it as soon as INDEC resumes production and reporting.
