The INE has today updated the IPRI data for the last three months, making the July 2025 data final. All the results of this operation are available at INEBase.
In accordance with the Commission's Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/137, the INE has begun to work on incorporating the new National Classification of Economic Activities CNAE-2025 in all its statistical operations.
In the case of the IPRI, the first publication of results with CNAE-2025 will take place in February 2028.
