...country's dominant gas supplier RWE Transgas said on Monday.
Overall price rise for households, and small and mid-sized customers will grow 7.8 percent, up from a 5.0 percent rise in October. Gas prices in the Czech Republic are set quarterly.
Rising prices for gas, electricity, foodstuffs and a sweeping tax overhaul involving a sales tax hike are expected to boost Czech inflation towards 6 percent early next year, from 4 percent in October.
The Czech Republic has liberalised its gas market, but RWE Transgas, a fully-owned unit of Germany's RWE , is the dominant importer and distributor. (Reporting by Petra Vodstrcilova; Writing by Marek Petrus)
