The prices of diesel, octane, petrol, and kerosene will remain unchanged in March, the Energy and Mineral Resources Division has said.


On February 26, the division sent a letter to the chairman of Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC) instructing that all types of fuel prices be kept steady.

The letter was made public on Sunday morning.

Earlier, on February 1, the government reduced fuel prices by Tk 2 per litre.

Diesel was lowered from Tk 102 to Tk 100 per litre, octane from Tk 122 to Tk 120, petrol from Tk 118 to Tk 116, and kerosene from Tk 114 to Tk 112.

For March, prices will remain the same.

Fuel prices in Bangladesh are determined monthly for consumers through an automatic pricing system which adjusts rates based on fluctuations in global oil markets.

According to the revised  Automatic Fuel Pricing Guidelines,the Energy and Mineral Resources Division has decided to maintain March fuel prices unchanged, reports UNB.
