In September, the price of petrol increased marginally by 1 cent a litre. However, the price of diesel and illuminating paraffin decreased by 21-cents a litre, and 26-cents a litre respectively.
The marginal increase in the petrol price results from an increase in the price of Brent crude oil sparked by fears of closures of production facilities due to hurricanes in parts of the United States.
