While this is true, as other have said, there is a high chance that inflation is higher than what is shown (although i doubt that this is as much as 50%). But another issue is that the government as been trying to fix its own deficit, due to the lasting crisis, by adding taxes to almost anything. You now pay taxes for buying a phone (second hand or not), for buying gold, for buying a car (fairly common but it is much higher now), taxes on alcohol are now at an all time high, ... And in general, foreign good cost a lot more. As an example, some of my acquaintance in Turkey are asking me to buy some electronic device (like computer, playstation, ...) here in France and they will send me the money, because the price of those goods in France is overall cheaper, even when you include the cost of converting lira to euro. Now, this should in fact raise the inflation, but it seems that they indeed chose a way to compute inflation that doesn't show this effect as much.
