there are not two present tenses in Kiswahili as there are in English - the present and the present continuous, so both of these translations should be acceptable. e.g. In English one can say "he increases the price every Friday" or " he is increasing the price day by day"

It's mostly only used in newspaper headlines now or describing what happens in the plot of something.
"raising the price" sounds better than "increasing the price" to my English ear. I'd report that it should also be accepted.
