Both grades of petrol, namely 93 and 95, or ULP and LRP, will increase by the same amount.

The economic factors which contributed to the price adjustments included the rand/dollar exchange rate from 28 June 2019 to 01 August 2019, which was 14.0709 compared to 14.6227 during the previous period, the Central Energy Fund said.

“This led to a lower contribution to the Basic Fuel Prices on petrol, diesel and illuminating paraffin by 27.59c/l, 28.56c/l and 28.89c/l respectively.”

The wholesale price of illuminating paraffin will decrease by 2 cents.
