Fuel prices have increased as a result of the Budget, Enemalta said.

The 2c rise increase in excise duty has been added to prices of unleaded petrol, diesel, kerosene and gas oil for heating.

Last December, fuel prices had to revert to the pre-Budget rates, after it was voted down in Parliament.

The recommended maximum retail prices per litre are now €1.51 for unleaded; €1.40 for diesel; €1.40 for kerosene and €1.10 for gas oil heating.
