According to data on the website of the Economy and Sustainable Development Ministry and the cijenegoriva.info portal, the price of Eurosuper 95 at petrol stations operated by Ina, Petrol, Crodux, Lukoil and some other distributors is HRK 13 per litre, having gone up from HRK 12.18 per litre.
The price increase of Eurodiesel is slightly higher, and at most petrol stations it is sold at HRK 13.91 per litre, having previously been sold at HRK 12.51 per litre. Premium diesel fuels are sold at more than HRK 15 per litre.
Last week the government decided to lock margins on petroleum product transactions and temporarily reduce excise duties on diesel and gasoline in order to lower fuel prices.
As a result, the total margin on diesel and petrol was locked at HRK 0.75 per litre, and at HRK 0.50 per litre for blue-dyed diesel.
Amendments to legislation on excise duties have reduced excise duties by HRK 0.20 per litre of unleaded gasoline for 90 days, and the reduction for diesel is HRK 0.40 per litre.
The government’s assessment was that based on those measures, the price growth of Eurosuper and Eurodiesel would be between HRK 0.80 and HRK 1.20 per litre, while without the measures the real market increase in prices would have been around HRK 2.
