Kenya’s Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has maintained the prices of petrol, diesel, and kerosene in its latest price review, effective from May 15 to June 14, 2025. The regulator attributed its decision to a decrease in the average landed cost of imported fuel products.
According to EPRA, the average landed cost of imported Super Petrol decreased by 2.95% from $606.06 per cubic meter in March 2025 to $588.16 per cubic meter in April 2025.
Diesel decreased by 6.62% from $636.75 per cubic meter to $594.60 per cubic meter, while kerosene decreased by 4.52% from $628.22 per cubic meter to $599.84 per cubic meter over the same period.
As a result, a liter of petrol and diesel will remain at 174 shillings and 164 shillings, respectively, while kerosene will continue to retail at 148 shillings per liter in Nairobi.
The prices include the 16% Value Added Tax (VAT) in line with the provisions of the Finance Act 2023, the Tax Laws (Amendment) Act 2024, and the revised excise duty rates adjusted for inflation as per Legal Notice No. 194 of 2020.
