Index change

Pick your tender month as the start. Leave the end month empty and each index is compared with its own latest month on our site.

Months to compare

In a price adjustment the base index is the tender month's.

Left empty, each series is read at its own latest month.

Ratio (In/Io)
1.601364

In a price adjustment each input's ratio is multiplied by its coefficient in the contract; one index's change is only part of the sum.

For information only. The indices are published by TÜİK and taken from the CBRT's EVDS. The CPI's 2026 figures are TÜİK's 2025=100 series linked to the 2003=100 base (the CBRT's EVDS).

Method

How an index change is calculated

An index's change between two months is its value in the end month divided by its value in the start month. It is the same ratio the price adjustment uses for each input.

Formula

Ratio = In / Io

Change = (In / Io − 1) × 100

Io is the start month's index and In the end month's. The ratio is worked to 12 places, as in the price-adjustment calculator; the table shows 6.

Worth knowing

The base month is the tender month
In a price adjustment the base index belongs to the month the tender date falls in (Principles art. 4/1-ı).
The current month is the application month
The current index belongs to the application month (art. 4/1-ç): the month the work programme says the work should be done (art. 4/1-i).
CPI for labour
Labour uses the general figure of TÜİK's Consumer Price Index (2003=100) (Principles art. 5/4-a). It is not a producer price index.
Series can end in different months
A series' latest month on our site can trail the others. With no end month, each series is compared at its own latest month.
A price adjustment is weighted
Each ratio is multiplied by its coefficient in the contract and summed into Pn; the amount is F = An × 0.90 × (Pn − 1).
Missing figures are never zero
No ratio is shown for a month our site has no figure for, or one before a series starts; the row says why.

What this tool does not calculate

It does not work out a price adjustment amount; that needs the contract's coefficients and the work amount. Fuel prices are not in this table.

The indices are published by TÜİK and taken from the CBRT's EVDS. Since January 2026 TÜİK has published the CPI on a 2025=100 base. The 2026 figures in the site's CPI General (2003=100) series are the 2025=100 series linked to the 2003=100 base (the CBRT's EVDS). The In/Io ratio comes out the same on both bases, apart from a very small rounding difference. For information only.

Frequently asked

About index change

The end month's index is divided by the start month's (In / Io). The ratio's distance from 1 is the change: a ratio of 1.25 means a 25% rise. The ratios in the table are the ones the price-adjustment calculator uses.

Under the Turkish Principles for Price Adjustment in Works Contracts, the base index is the one for the month the tender date falls in (art. 4/1-ı) and the current index is the application month's (art. 4/1-ç). Pick your tender month as the start and the payment's application month as the end.

The Principles prescribe the general figure of TÜİK's Consumer Price Index (2003=100) table by expenditure group for labour (art. 5/4-a). So the CPI row in the table is not a producer price index; it is the index behind coefficient a in the formula.

If you leave the end month empty, each series is read at its own latest month on our site. If you pick one, a series with no figure for that month on our site shows the reason in place of the ratio.

No. In a price adjustment each input's In/Io ratio is multiplied by its coefficient in the contract and summed into Pn; the amount is F = An × 0.90 × (Pn − 1). One index's change is only part of that. Use the price-adjustment calculator for the amount.
