Weekly Fuel Price Update April 23–29, 2026: Significant Relief as Diesel and Petrol Prices Drop

It's Wednesday again, and the Ministry of Finance has announced a welcome set of fuel price reductions for the coming week (April 23-29). Local motorists will see much-needed relief at the pumps, as prices for all major fuels have been reduced — with diesel, in particular, seeing a substantial drop.

Fuel Price Trends (April 23 - April 29, 2026)

RON 95 (Unsubsidised/Floating): RM3.87 per litre (Down 15 sen)

RON 97: RM4.85 per litre (Down 25 sen) 

Diesel (Peninsular B10/B20): RM5.12 per litre (Down 85 sen)

Diesel Price Relief and Increased Assistance 

In Peninsular Malaysia, the retail price of B10 and B20 diesel has dropped by 85 sen to RM5.12 per litre. The Euro 5 B7 blend follows suit, now retailing at RM5.32 per litre.

To further support the public, the BUDI MADANI diesel cash assistance has been increased to RM400 for April (up from RM300), with the additional RM100 top-up being disbursed starting April 21. This marks the second adjustment to the Budi Diesel quota since March.

Petrol Prices: RON 97 Down by 25 Sen 

RON 97 sees a 25 sen reduction to RM4.85 per litre, while the floating RON 95 price has eased to RM3.87. For eligible individuals under the BUDI95 scheme, the subsidised rate remains steady at RM1.99, though the monthly quota continues with its temporary adjustment of 200 litres.

These prices take effect from midnight tonight until Wednesday, April 29, 2026. This marks the 381st fuel price update since the weekly automatic pricing mechanism began in 2019.
