Estonia's consumer prices increased in February, data from Statistics Estonia showed on Friday.

The consumer price index grew 0.6 percent year-on-year in February, following a 0.2 percent rise in January.

Diesel fuel prices declined 12.8 percent and petrol prices fell 4.0 percent.

Transportation cost increased 2.8 percent annually in February. Prices of food and non-alcoholic beverages gained 0.9 percent and those of recreation and culture rose 1.5 percent.

Prices for clothing and footwear and alcoholic beverages and tobacco grew 0.8 percent, each.

On a monthly basis, consumer prices rose 0.9 percent in February, following a 0.7 percent increase in the previous month.
