Meanwhile, CIMB Investment Bank Bhd has adjusted its 2024 headline inflation forecast to 2.3%, down from the initial 2.7%, citing minimal impact from diesel subsidy rationalisation. The reduced pass-through of fuel price changes is attributed to the decreased weightage of fuel and lubricants in the consumer price index (CPI) basket, dropping from 8.5% in 2023 to 5.9% in 2024. Diesel’s share is 0.2%, resulting in a 0.1 percentage point first-order impact on headline inflation over 12 months, while petrol carries a CPI weight of 5.5%.
