Analysts had hoped for a slightly clearer decline, to 46.6 percent according to a compilation of forecasts made by Bloomberg.

Compared to October this year, November prices rose by 2.2 percent. This can be compared to a monthly price increase rate of 2.9 percent in October and an average forecast for November of 1.9 percent.

Turkey's interest rate has been at 50 percent for some time, to curb the upward pressure on prices in the country. The next interest rate decision from the country's central bank will come on December 26.
