Overview
Trimmed mean inflation highest in over five years
Annual CPI inflation was 3.0 per cent in the September quarter, with the unwinding of free childcare in 2020 continuing to have an effect. The September quarter saw Trimmed mean inflation increase from 1.6 per cent to 2.1 per cent. The Trimmed mean and Weighted median are measures of underlying inflation which exclude large, one-off price impacts such as free childcare. Both measures recorded their first annual movements above 2 per cent since the September 2015 quarter.

Rising construction costs drive new dwelling prices
High levels of building construction activity combined with shortages of materials and supply disruptions have contributed to the largest rise in new dwelling prices since September 2000 when the GST was introduced. Government housing construction grants had a smaller impact on new dwelling prices this quarter due to fewer grant payments compared to last quarter.

Automotive fuel prices at record levels
The Automotive fuel series reached a record level in the September 2021 quarter, due to higher global oil prices amid economic recovery and supply disruptions. The national average quarterly price for unleaded petrol, which is the highest weighted fuel type within the series, neared the record high seen in the March 2014 quarter. The maximum average daily unleaded petrol price for Australia reached a record high of $1.65 per litre during the September 2021 quarter.

Food and non-alcoholic beverages group (+0.3%)
Restaurant meals (+1.6%) and Takeaway and fast foods (+1.3%) both rose primarily due to reduced uptake of the NSW 'Dine & Discover' and City of Melbourne 'Melbourne Money' voucher schemes compared to the June 2021 quarter. These vouchers reduced the out-of-pocket costs for consumers, hence fewer vouchers being redeemed resulted in a price rise in the September quarter.
Fruit (-8.3%) partially offset the rise, due to favourable growing conditions for berries, citrus and avocados. Reduced demand for produce from the food service industry during lockdowns also resulted in increased supply and lower prices for households.
In seasonally adjusted terms, the group rose 0.5%. The main contributors were Restaurant meals (+1.6%) and Takeaway and fast foods (+1.3%).
Over the past twelve months, the group rose 1.3%. The main contributors were Restaurant meals (+2.8%), Takeaway and fast foods (+2.1%) and Beef and veal (+10.9%).
Alcohol and tobacco group (-0.5%)
- Tobacco (-0.9%) and Alcohol (-0.3%) both fell. This was the first September quarter since 2013 without a 12.5% increase in the tobacco excise.
In seasonally adjusted terms, the group fell (-1.4%). The main contributor was Tobacco (-2.4%).
Over the past twelve months, the group rose 4.4%. The main contributor was Tobacco (+9.8%).
Clothing and footwear group (-3.8%)
- Garments fell 5.5% as retailers looked to move excess winter stock resulting from low demand during lockdowns in some capital cities.
In seasonally adjusted terms, the group fell 3.5%. The main contributor was Garments (-5.0%).
Over the past twelve months, the group fell 3.9%. The main contributor was Garments for women (-10.4%).
Housing group (+1.7%)
New dwelling purchase by owner-occupiers rose 3.3%. This is the largest rise since the September 2000 quarter driven by substantial increases in base prices in all capital cities. Continuing strong demand for housing construction enabled builders to pass through increases in costs for both materials and labour. Government housing construction grants had a smaller impact on new dwelling prices this quarter due to fewer grant payments compared to last quarter.
The following graph shows the new dwellings series including and excluding government housing construction grants.

June 2020 = 100.0
- Property rates rose 3.3%, which is the largest rise since 2016. Many councils increased rates after implementing smaller rises, rebates or rate freezes last year.
- Rents rose 0.2% with subdued rental conditions in Sydney and Melbourne offsetting the continued strength in the other capital cities.
In seasonally adjusted terms, the group rose 1.4%.
Over the past twelve months the group rose 1.6%. The main contributor to the rise was New Dwelling purchase by owner-occupiers (+3.8%).
Furnishings, household equipment and services group (+1.6%)
This group includes household goods and furnishings and services provided to households, including childcare.
Furniture (+3.8%) prices rose due to supply shortages and elevated demand from households.
Childcare (+2.1%) rose as higher fees increased out-of-pocket expenses for households.
In seasonally adjusted terms the group rose 0.8%. The main contributors were Childcare (+1.4%) and Furniture (+1.4%).
Over the past twelve months the group rose 6.0%. The main contributor was Childcare due to the unwinding of free childcare introduced last year. Excluding the impact of Childcare, the group would have risen 1.3% over the past twelve months.
Health group (0.0%)
Medical and hospital services (+0.5%) rose due to the indexation of Medicare Benefit Schedule fees applied from July 2021. There were also general price rises for both hospital and out of hospital services, such as GPs and allied health services.
Pharmaceutical products offset the rise (-1.8%), due to an increase in the proportion of consumers who qualify for subsidies under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS).
In seasonally adjusted terms the group rose 1.0%. Medical and hospital services (+1.5%) was the main contributor.
Over the past twelve months the group rose 4.9%. Medical and hospital services (+7.1%) was the main contributor due to increases in Private Health Insurance premiums.
Transport group (+3.2%)
Automotive fuel rose 7.1% due to an increase in global oil prices. The Automotive fuel series reached record levels, surpassing the previous high set in the March 2014 quarter.
Motor vehicles rose 1.4% due to continued strength in demand combined with supply constraints such as the global semi-conductor shortage, COVID-related factory closures and shipping costs.
In seasonally adjusted terms, the group rose (+2.9%). The main contributor was Automotive fuel (+7.1%).
Over the past twelve months the group rose 10.4%. Automotive fuel (+24.6%) and Motor vehicles (+6.2%) were the main contributors.

International trade exposure - tradable and non-tradables
The tradables and non-tradables series measure the contribution of goods and services that are highly exposed to international trade influences (tradables), and those that are mostly influenced by domestic factors (non-tradables), to overall household inflation. Examples of tradables include automotive fuel, most food items, and clothing and footwear. Examples of non-tradables include housing and education.
Tradables (+0.8% quarter, +3.1% annual)
- Tradable goods component rose 0.8% due to Automotive fuel (+7.1%)
- Tradable services component fell 1.6%.
Non-tradables (+0.9% quarter, +3.2% annual)
- Non-tradable goods component rose 1.1% due to New dwelling purchase by owner occupiers (+3.3%).
- Non-tradable services component rose 0.7% due to Restaurant meals (+1.6%).
In seasonally adjusted terms, the tradables component of the All groups CPI rose 0.7% and the non-tradables component rose 0.7%.
Underlying inflation series
The Trimmed mean and the Weighted median provide measures of underlying inflation. These measures reduce the impact of irregular or temporary price changes in the CPI. For more information see Underlying Inflation Measures: Explaining the Trimmed Mean and Weighted Median.
In the September 2021 quarter:
The Trimmed mean rose 0.7%, following a rise of 0.5% in the June 2021 quarter.
Over the past twelve months to the September 2021 quarter, the Trimmed mean rose 2.1%, following a rise of 1.6% over the twelve months to the June 2021 quarter.
The Weighted median rose 0.7% following a rise of 0.5% in the June 2021 quarter.
Over the past twelve months, the Weighted median rose 2.1%, following a rise of 1.6% over the twelve months to the June 2021 quarter.

In all capital cities:
Automotive fuel increased with the CPI series reaching record levels in Sydney and Melbourne and near record levels in Brisbane. The movements this quarter ranged from +6.3% in Hobart to +8.3% in Canberra.
New dwelling purchase by owner-occupiers rose in all capital cities except Perth, due to strong demand allowing builders to pass through increases in materials and labour costs.
Furniture rose due to supply shortages and elevated demand.
Property rates and charges rose due to council rate rises following lower than usual increases in 2020.
Fruit fell due to price falls in berries, citrus and avocados as plentiful supply led to lower prices for households.
