What happened
Dubai's annual inflation rate decreased slightly in September to 5.03 per cent, down from 5.54 per cent in August. While the general monthly consumer price index fell by 0.05 per cent, the transport segment was the largest contributor to inflation. This rise was driven by a 37.52 per cent increase in the cost of fuels and lubricants for personal transport.

Why it matters
The increase in transport charges is linked to rising global oil market prices, which influence the cost of fuel in the Emirates. This trend demonstrates how rising fuel costs can drive general inflation, even as other consumer prices decline.
