The Bangladesh government has reduced the prices of all types of fuel oil by Tk 2 per liter for February. According to a notification issued by the Energy and Mineral Resources Division on Saturday night, the new rates will take effect from Sunday, February 1. Under the revised pricing, diesel will cost Tk 100 per liter, kerosene Tk 112, petrol Tk 116, and octane Tk 120.

The government introduced an automatic fuel pricing system in March of the previous year to align domestic prices with global market trends. Under this system, new prices are announced each month based on international market movements. The latest adjustment reflects the continuation of that policy framework.

The notification did not specify how long the new rates will remain in effect beyond February, but the monthly review mechanism suggests further adjustments may follow depending on global price changes.
