Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission has increased the price of furnace oil (HFO) from Tk 70.10 to Tk 94.69 per liter, marking a rise of Tk 24.59. The new rate will take effect from Sunday midnight, according to a press release issued on Sunday. The adjustment was made under sections 34(4) and 34(6) of the Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission Act, 2003, following proposals from Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC) and oil marketing companies.
The commission stated that under the February 22, 2026 order, furnace oil prices are to be adjusted every three months or as needed. Since no crude oil was imported in March, the new price was determined based on the average international market rate of refined furnace oil and the exchange rate of the US dollar. A committee formed on March 15 analyzed the Platts index-based average price and exchange rate to recommend the April price.
The recommendation was reviewed and approved in special commission meetings held on April 5 and April 12, finalizing the new pricing structure for April 2026.
