The price of diesel will rise from BDS$1.99 to $2.07 per litre, an increase of eight cents. Kerosene will now retail at BDS$1.03 cents per litre, an increase of 11cents.

Meanwhile, LPG will retail at BDS$136.99 per 100-pound cylinder, down from BDS$140.31, a decrease of $3.32.

The price of the 25 lb cylinder has dropped from $40.18 to $39.35, a decrease of 83 cents, while the 22 lb cylinder will now cost $34.79, down from $35.52, which is 73 cents less. The new price of a 20 lb cylinder is $31.63, which is 66 cents cheaper.
