No price change at CEYPETCO despite IOC surge

Date:

There will be no price revision on fuel at the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation despite the price hike proceeded by the Indian Oil Company (IOC), said the Energy Ministry.

The IOC yesterday surged the price of petrol by Rs. 20 per litre and all types of diesel by Rs. 15 per litre.

Accordingly, one litre of Octane 92 petrol sold by the IOC will be Rs. 204 and diesel, Rs. 139.

The IOC had previously surged the price of fuel on February 06 as well.

In the backdrop, the CEYPETCO has also requested the Energy Ministry for a price surge, but to no avail.
