The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has announced the maximum retail prices for petroleum products, slated to be effective from August 15 to September 14, 2023.
This decision comes as the government aims to mitigate the impact of increased landed costs on consumers, thereby maintaining stability in pump prices during the August-September 2023 pricing cycle.
To counteract the potential surge in pump prices due to rising costs, the government has taken the proactive step of stabilizing the rates for Super Petrol, Diesel, and Kerosene.
Consequently, consumers can expect to see no changes in the prices of these essential fuels during this two-month period.
