Petrol price to rise by 93c

Aug 31, 2012 | REUTERS | 20 comments

THE retail price of all grades of petrol will increase by 93c per litre (c/l) on Wednesday September 5‚ the Department of Energy said.

South Africa’s retail petrol price will rise by about 8,4% a litre partly to finance wage increases for pump attendants at garages, the energy department said.

The new price of 95 grade petrol in the inland commercial region of Gauteng will increase to 11,97 rand a litre. The wholesale diesel price will also go up by about 6,7% to 10,95 rand.
