Enemalta yesterday announced a rise in the price of unleaded petrol and a drop in that of diesel.

As from today, a litre of unleaded petrol will cost €1.41, a three cents increase on the former price of €1.38 per litre.

The cost of diesel goes down by four cents from €1.34 to €1.30 per litre. Kerosene also costs four cents less per litre. Enemalta said the maximum retail prices reflected the prices of the latest shipments of imported fuel as well as the increase in petrol stations’ maximum retail mark-up as approved by the Malta Resources Authority.

It recalled that there had been no consignments of unleaded in April and this had left the price of unleaded petrol unchanged despite increases in the market.

Meanwhile, the MRA raised the maximum price of gas cylinders by 20c although the suppliers have not yet announced an increase.
