Bike engine oil prices hiked

Author: Web Desk

On Tuesday, the cost of motorbike engine oil increased by Rs100 to Rs150 at various banded companies, making it more difficult for the poor to maintain their bikes.

According to details, the price of loose engine oil has increased from Rs270 to Rs350 per litre.

Shell 7-points oil will now cost Rs625 up from Rs550.

Likewise, Shell 1 liter of oil has reached Rs625 from Rs550.

Similarly, the price of Caltex 7-point oil, after a rise of Rs100, has gone up to Rs640.

Caltex liter will now be sold at Rs850 after a price hike of Rs150.

ZIC Liter Oil has been jacked up to Rs1,200 from Rs800 whereas ZIC 7-Point Oil will now be sold at Rs800 up from Rs680.

Vendors, on the other hand, claimed that the companies blame taxation for the price hike.

Profit margin has narrowed due to the back-breaking inflation, and those who used to purchase branded oil have now switched to buying loose engine oil.
