The Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC) said today said CEYPETCO fuel stations would continue to issue fuel at the previous prices.

As such a CPC spokesman said the Thursday night’s price increases would not affect CEYPETCO fuel stations.

“The Finance Ministry has informed us of the price revision on Thursday. However, we have not issued a circular on increased prices for fuel stations due to a Presidential direction,” he said.

Meanwhile, Lanka IOC Managing Director Shyam Bohra said they would issue fuel at the increased prices.

The LIOC Shed Owners Association said the price of 92-Octane petrol was increased by Rs.9 a litre to Rs.146. Xtra Premium Euro-3 petrol was increased to Rs.149.

“95-Octane-Euro-4 petrol was increased to Rs.158; Auto Diesel was raised to Rs.118; Super diesel was increased to Rs.129 and Xtra Mile Super Diesel (Euro 4) was increased to Rs.122,” it said.

The price of fuel was also increased on May 10, 2018. (Chaturanga Samarawickrama and Kalathma Jayawardhane)

    I filled up this morning at 145/= How can I recover my loose? It is clear that we have 2 Governments and both are pulling in opposite direction. This Joint Gov. is not going to work!

    When the price went up, you complained. Then the price came down and you are still complaining. What is a small loss of Rs. 300-500 when you drive a million rupee vehicle? If you dont have cash to pump petrol, which is still at a subsidised rate, sell your vehicle and go in the bus.

    I have no words to express my feelings.

    Why can't the government stick to one policy?

    Will you jokers make up your mind?

    This is all Mahinda Rajapaksa's fault fault. NYT says so. And all yahapalana modayas believe so.

    Kind of knew this would happen. Why can't the govt simply implement a decision? Now the country would be making more loss by subsidised fuel.

    Cobra Friday, 06 July 2018 05:32 PM

    Yajapalanaya on a suicide course. The more they eat parippu the more they are trying to regurgitate it on the voters!

    GH Friday, 06 July 2018 06:07 PM

    But will implemented from Monday, is it what the government tries interpreting?

    Amali Friday, 06 July 2018 06:19 PM

    Enjoy the fruits of free market!

    Jiff Friday, 06 July 2018 06:23 PM

    It's beyond me why the 6.2million yahapalana voters didn't see this coming. Getting together to beat one man always end up in a mess.

    Consumer Friday, 06 July 2018 07:00 PM

    This is utterly ridiculous.Whoever has blundered should be made accountable and surcharged.

    vajira Friday, 06 July 2018 07:05 PM

    Politics and Government wants to take a credit.Just gimmicks.
