This will be the third straight increase to fuel prices this year if this increase comes to pass.
JOHANNESBURG - The Automobile Association on Monday, said that the current data suggests that petrol may increase by 56 cents a litre at the end of April, while diesel is showing a reduction of five cents and illuminating paraffin down by a cent. The National African Federated Chamber of Commerce and Industry has already said that petrol has increased by almost R4 since January, which constitutes about a 12% increase.
It said that the ground gained by the local currency has cushioned some of the blow, with diesel currently showing a slight decrease, but petrol users were in for a shock.
