EPRA Lowers Petrol and Diesel Prices for June–July Review Period

In its latest review, EPRA said the revised maximum retail prices for petroleum products will take effect from June 15, 2026, to July 14, 2026, in line with the provisions of the Petroleum Act, 2019 and the applicable pricing regulations.

Under the new rates, the price of Super Petrol has been reduced by KSh 0.22 per litre, while Diesel has recorded a significant drop of KSh 10.00 per litre. The price of Kerosene remains unchanged during the review period.

In Nairobi, motorists will now purchase Super Petrol at KSh 214.03 per litre, Diesel at KSh 222.86 per litre, while Kerosene will continue retailing at KSh 191.38 per litre.

EPRA attributed the revised prices to changes in the global fuel market and the application of existing tax and regulatory frameworks. The prices include Value Added Tax (VAT), excise duty adjustments linked to inflation, and other statutory charges as provided under relevant laws.

The regulator also confirmed that the government will continue cushioning consumers through the Petroleum Development Levy (PDL) Fund.

Approximately KSh 10 billion has been allocated to support diesel and kerosene prices during the current pricing cycle.

The latest adjustment is expected to provide relief to transport operators, businesses, and households that rely heavily on diesel, amid ongoing concerns over the cost of living.

The revised fuel prices will remain in force for the next 30 days, pending EPRA's next monthly review.
