The prices—effective from midnight—include the 16% VAT as required by the Finance Act 2023, the Tax Laws (Amendment) Act 2024 and inflation-adjusted excise duty under Legal Notice No. 194 of 2020.
“EPRA has set the maximum pump prices for the next 30 days, and Super Petrol, Diesel and Kerosene will all remain unchanged,” said Director General Daniel Kiptoo.
Kiptoo attributed the price stability to largely unchanged average landed costs of imported petroleum.
He noted that the average landed cost for Super Petrol dipped marginally by 0.18%, from US$620.24 to US$619.14 per cubic metre. Diesel costs rose by 1.81% from US$623.75 to US$635.05, while Kerosene increased by 0.71% from US$627.72 to US$632.16.
He added that the pricing formula ensures fairness and transparency, offering predictability for consumers and the transport sector.
