Relief at the pumps on the cards in June

Diesel users are in line for some fuel price relief in June 2026 after two consecutive months of increases.

The latest data from the Central Energy Fund shows that the prices of both grades of diesel will come down by about 4 rand 41 cents and 3 rand 52 cents per litre.

The over-recovery on the retail price for paraffin is also substantial, and will result in a price drop of 3 rand 71 cents a litre.

Meanwhile, the increase in the petrol price will be less pronounced next month at about 18 cents a litre for 95 Octane and 13 cents for 93 Octane.
