South Africa’s Department of Mineral and Petroleum Resources confirms that fuel prices will increase from Wednesday. Petrol rises by R3.27 per litre, with the increase applying to both petrol grades. Diesel is set to increase by R6.19 per litre, with the final amount depending on the diesel’s sulphur grade. The reported changes affect both petrol and diesel price levels at the pumps, following the DMPR’s published determination. While one outlet notes the increase is higher than expected, both sources agree on the confirmed per-litre adjustments for petrol and diesel and on the role of sulphur grade in setting the diesel price. The update indicates that consumers can expect higher costs starting Wednesday, driven by the department’s adjustment for petrol and diesel and the differentiation between diesel grades based on sulphur content.
