Producer price for industrial products, including oil products, was unchanged in February on a monthly basis.
Price for coal and oil products slipped 0.4 percent, but chemical products price gained 0.3 percent.
Price for electricity, natural gas and tap water stood unchanged in February from a month earlier.
No change was made in service price due to higher expense for the eatery and lodging and the real estate services that offset lower cost for the transport and the finance and insurance services. Enditem
