REF: PPR/14 - 7/1
PUBLIC NOTICE ON CAP PRICES FOR PETROLEUM PRODUCTS EFFECTIVE
WEDNESDAY, 2ND JULY 2014
The Energy and Water Utilities Regulatory Authority (EWURA) hereby publishes monthly cap prices
for petroleum products, applicable in Tanzania Mainland. These retail and wholesale prices are
applicable effective Wednesday 2nd July 2014. Kindly take note of the following:
(a)
Retail and wholesale prices for Petrol, Diesel and Kerosene have changed compared with the
last cap prices publication of 4th June 2014. Retail prices for Petrol and Kerosene have
increased by TZS 17/litre or 0.75% and TZS 14/litre or 0.68% respectively, while for Diesel
the retail price has decreased by TZS 1/litre, equivalent to -0.07% . Compared with the last
publications, wholesale prices for Petrol and Kerosene have increased by TZS 16.67/litre or
0.79%, and TZS 13.82/litre or 0.71% respectively, and for Diesel the wholesale price has
dropped by TZS 1.41/litre, equivalent to -0.07%. These changes have been caused by changes
of prices of petroleum products in the world market and depreciation of Tanzanian shilling
against the American dollar.
(b)
In line with the prevailing sector legislation, prices of petroleum products are governed by
rules of supply and demand. EWURA shall continue to encourage competition in the sector by
making available petroleum products pricing information including price cap. This information
on prices is intended to enable stakeholders to make informed decisions on petroleum prices at
any particular time.
(c)
Oil marketing companies are free to sell their products at a price that give them competitive
advantage, provided that such price does not exceed the price cap for the relevant product.
The approved formula was gazetted through Government Notice No. 432 of 29th
November 2013.
(d)
All petrol stations should publish petroleum product prices on clearly visible boards. The price
boards should be clearly visible and should clearly show prices charged, discounts offered as
well as any trade incentives or promotions on offer. Consumers are advised to purchase from
those that sell products at the most competitive prices. It is an offence not to have prices
published on boards located in clearly visible places in front of petrol stations and it will
attract punitive measures from EWURA.
(e)
Retailers must issue receipts with respect to all sales that they make and consumers are advised
to demand and keep receipts that clearly show the name of petrol station, date on which such
purchase was made as well as, the type of fuel and price per litre for every purchase they make.
This can be used as an exhibit in case of a complaint lodged in the event that the selling price is
above the cap price or in case the products sold are off the approved specifications.
