Prices for unleaded, diesel, premix and kerosene drop while gas prices to increase

The prices of unleaded fuel, diesel, premix, and kerosene will drop, while the price of gas will go up starting tomorrow.

Unleaded fuel will drop from $2.73 to $2.62 per litre, diesel will drop from $2.33 to $2.18 per litre, Kerosene will have a 12 cents drop from $1.79 to $1.67 and premix will drop from $2.55 to $2.43.

The price of a 4.5kg cylinder of gas will increase from $14.80 to $14.97 and a 12kg cylinder will now cost $39.91.

The Fijian Competition and Consumer Commission (FCCC) CEO Joel Abraham says ensuring affordability for Fijian families remains at the forefront of their efforts.

Abraham says this recent adjustment reflects FCCC’s commitment to shielding consumers from the pressures of global market fluctuations.

He says they recognize the impact of rising costs on everyday life, and through diligent monitoring and regulatory measures, FCCC aims to keep essential commodities like fuel within reach, particularly for those most vulnerable.

He adds by holding the line on prices, they are not only supporting household budgets but also reinforcing our commitment to consumer welfare and fair market practices.
