According to the Nepal Oil Corporation, the price of diesel imported from India has increased, while the price of petrol has decreased.

The corporation has received a new price list indicating a rise of 2 rupees and 47 paisa per liter for diesel and a decrease of 34 paisa for petrol.

Despite the implementation of the new price list, the corporation remains profitable in all petroleum products. Although there has been a decrease in the international market prices of petroleum products, the corporation has not reduced the prices in Nepal.

As a result, the corporation is currently making a fortnightly profit of over 1 billion rupees. Additionally, the corporation has turned its previously loss-making LPG gas sector into a profitable one.
