TUNIS (Reuters) - Tunisia's annual inflation rate fell in January to 3.5 percent from 4.1 percent in December, official data showed on Wednesday. Tunisia's central bank in October cut its main interest rate to 4.25 percent from 4.75 percent to boost economic growth, as inflation fell. The inflation rate was 4.9 percent in 2015 against 5.5 percent in 2014. (Reporting By Tarek Amara; Editing by Toby Chopra)
