Here's What You're Likely To Pay For Petrol And Diesel From Wednesday, April 2

South Africans can look forward to substantial fuel price savings from Wednesday, April 2, with both petrol and diesel decreases predicted.

Unaudited month-end data from the Central Energy Fund CEF is pointing to petrol price decreases in the region of 64 cents for 93 Unleaded and 78 cents for 95 Unleaded, while diesel is set to go down by between 90 cents 500ppm and 92 cents 50ppm.

This should see 93 Unleaded retailing at around R21.45 in Gauteng and 95 Unleaded at R21.56, with a coastal price of about R20.77. The wholesale price of 50ppm diesel should recede to R18.53 at the coast and R19.29 inland.

The official fuel prices for April are set to be announced by the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy early this week.

The predicted decreases come largely as a result of lower international product prices, which contributed between 52 cents and 66 cents to the petrol price over-recovery and up to 80 cents to the anticipated diesel decrease.
