It’s Wednesday, which means that it is time once again for the weekly fuel price update from the ministry of finance for the coming week of April 16 to 22, 2026. Some respite comes this week after the recent, sustained upwards trajectory.
Diesel of the B10 and B20 grades drop by 75 sen to RM5.97 per litre, down from the RM6.72 per litre price of last week. Therefore, the Euro 5 B7 blend of diesel, which is 20 sen more per litre, is at RM6.17 per litre for the coming week.
The retail price of diesel fuels in Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan stays unchanged at RM2.15 per litre. The Budi Madani diesel fuel cash assistance has been increased from RM300 to RM400, and the additional RM100 is set to be be disbursed on April 21. This is the second increase in the Budi Diesel quota, following a prior increase from RM200 to RM300 in March.
For petrol, subsidised RON 95 under the Budi Madani RON 95 (Budi95) scheme remains at RM1.99 per litre; Malaysians with a valid driving licence are eligible for the fuel at a monthly quota that is temporarily adjusted to 200 litres per month. The price of unsubsidised RON 95 petrol drops by 25 sen to RM4.02 per litre, and RON 97 by the same amount to RM5.10 per litre, from their respective prices of last week.
These prices take effect from midnight tonight until Wednesday, April 22, 2026. This is the 17th edition of the weekly fuel pricing format for 2026, and the 380th in total since the format was introduced at the start of 2019.
