Bangladesh has raised retail fuel prices by 10% to 15%, ​citing a sharp surge in global crude oil ‌prices and tightening supplies caused by ​the ongoing conflict in West Asia, the ⁠Energy Ministry said late on Saturday (April 18, 2026).

Under the new rates, petrol will sell at 135 taka ($1.10) per ‌litre, up from 116 taka, diesel at 115 taka and kerosene ‌at 130 taka, according to an official ‌notification.
