The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) on Monday announced that the prices of super petrol, diesel, and kerosene will decrease in the April fuel review.
In its latest fuel review, the prices of Super Petrol, Diesel, and Kerosene will now retail at Ksh174.63, Ksh164.86, and Ksh148.99, respectively, reflecting a decrease of Ksh1.95, Ksh2.20, and Ksh2.40 per litre, respectively.
EPRA noted that the calculated maximum retail prices of petroleum products will be in force from April 15 to May 14.
According to EPRA, the prices are inclusive of the 16 per cent value-added tax (VAT) in line with the provisions of the Finance Act 2023 and the Tax Laws (Amendment) Act 2024 and the revised rates for excise duty adjusted for inflation. On Friday, CBK announced that international oil prices declined, with Murban oil trading at Ksh8,390 (USD64.77) per barrel on April 10 from Ksh9,300 (USD71.86) per barrel on April 3, reflecting concerns over the impact of US tariffs on global demand and increased production of oil in major oil-exporting countries.
