The price of a litre of Petrol had been reduced by Rs.10 while a liter of Auto Diesel was reduced by Rs.7 with effect from midnight  today, the Ministry of Finance said.

Accordingly, a litre of petrol will be sold at Rs.145 and a litre of auto diesel will be Rs.116

Lubricants including the 2T lubricants used in three-wheelers and small agricultural engines have been reduced by Rs.10 per litre

A cost-based pricing mechanism will be implemented on fuel in place of the monthly fuel price formula.

    Don't be fooled but temporary incentives that are thrown at you by MR. Once they are permanently elected, they will go back to charging the actual price.

    Suresh Thursday, 01 November 2018 08:38 PM

    What Srilankans really need is unstable political situations and more regular elections

    kumar Thursday, 01 November 2018 09:37 PM

    S Fernando Thursday, 01 November 2018 09:52 PM

    DN Thursday, 01 November 2018 09:48 PM

    Mr. Gammanpila said Petrol can be sold @ Rs. 95/- . Can we have it for Rs.95/-?

    TONY Thursday, 01 November 2018 11:50 PM

    BEWARE! THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY

    Ruwan Wijesekera Friday, 02 November 2018 01:59 AM

    I think this the fuel is coming directly from MR's oil fields....as the world market prices are going up and the US Dollar rate is going up... ???

    Lalu Friday, 02 November 2018 07:57 AM

    Sambo Friday, 02 November 2018 07:52 AM

    So now its back to carrots. They know the major of our people are uneducated stupid. easy to fool them. Reduce b ten and increase by 25.

    GH Friday, 02 November 2018 06:41 PM

    It is good for the time being. Await more in the future sir.

    Aajibu Friday, 02 November 2018 06:53 PM

    Finally the fuel pricing formula worked. This price reduction is temporary and definitely the price would go up by double the amount of reduction. Also the reduction will only benefit the private vehicle owners. The tuktuk/bus/cab fares should be reduced too, Does the government officials has taken necessary steps to reduce the fares?????
