The latest adjustment to domestic refined oil product prices has been confirmed, marking a notable rise for consumers.
The National Development and Reform Commission has confirmed that the price adjustment window for refined oil products will open at midnight on August 28th. According to monitoring by the NDRC's Price Monitoring Center, international oil prices experienced volatile fluctuations during the current pricing cycle, which spanned from August 14th to August 28th.
Following this period, domestic retail price caps for gasoline and diesel will rise by 375 yuan and 360 yuan per tonne, respectively, effective from 24:00 on August 28th. On a national average basis, this translates to an increase of 0.29 yuan per litre for 92-octane gasoline, and 0.31 yuan per litre for both 95-octane gasoline and 0-diesel.
With this upward adjustment confirmed, a typical private car filling a 50-litre tank with 92-octane gasoline will incur an additional cost of 14.5 yuan per fill-up.
In line with the national announcement, the Shaanxi Provincial Development and Reform Commission has published its official notice on local fuel price changes. The new maximum retail prices for gasoline and diesel in the province will take effect from midnight on August 28th, 2026, adhering to the administrative measures for petroleum pricing and the NDRC's latest guidance.
