Latest verified available report: 2026-10-12 · Dated source publication

CEF labels positive values as over-recovery and values in parentheses as under-recovery. We store parentheses as negative values. Under-recovery points to increase pressure; over-recovery points to decrease pressure. The period-average row is taken directly from the report, not calculated from a single daily value.
This is a market estimate. Final adjustments can include other components and are officially announced separately. It is not a guaranteed next-month price, today’s published price or a commercial quotation. We do not invent observations for missing days or weekends.

Editorial reviewed 2026-10-14
REVIEWED EXPLANATORY NOTE
The 2 October release lists a 4.380 c/L slate-levy increase in the adjustment breakdown for petrol 95 and both diesel grades. That is one component of the announced adjustment, not an additional fee to add to the published reference price.

Editorial reviewed 2026-10-14
REVIEWED EXPLANATORY NOTE
Petrol has a regulated pump price. Diesel has a published wholesale reference and an unregulated retail price. The price structure combines the basic fuel price with domestic costs, margins, transport and levies. A dated reference does not include your specific delivery arrangement.
