If required, we will make the modifications often. Domestic prices will decline at the same rate as global prices if they do.

Nasrul claimed that because the government subsidizes gasoline prices to lower the cost of living, it loses money anytime the price of a barrel rises above $70 on the international market. For some months, the price of oil has been circling at about $100 per barrel.

He stated, “I think we should require an adjustment to the global market to prevent large losses,” pointing out that the government-run Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation lost Tk 80 billion as a result of the rise in oil prices throughout the world. While we were doing nothing, everyone in the developed world made changes. He said that the government will continue to provide diesel subsidies to the agricultural industry.

The transportation industry uses the majority of Bangladesh’s fuel oil imports. Nasrul said that a price increase would have little impact on the industry’s costs. After the increase in gasoline prices, he predicts that bus fares would climb by Tk 1 or 2 per kilometer. He stated that they were considering talking about the matter with the authorities in charge of the land, air, and sea transportation systems as well as the owners of those systems of transportation.

NO OTHER OPTIONS-

Bangladesh has prohibited purchasing liquefied natural gas, or LNG, from the spot market owing to a price increase as its foreign currency reserves are depleting.

The decision had a considerable impact on energy production because more than half of the nation’s power facilities run on gas. Additionally, the government stopped operations at power plants that use pricey diesel.

Authorities have resorted to frequent power interruptions because of the supply shortage. To address the economic catastrophe brought on by the Russia-Ukraine war, ministers and advisors have urged forbearance. Businesses have also expressed dissatisfaction with manufacturing delays brought on by power outages.

Some businesspeople proposed boosting the cost of fuel oil and electricity at a seminar held by the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry on Thursday to guarantee a steady supply. The ministry said in the notice that there is “no choice” other than to increase the price of fuel oil, citing Nasrul.  Nasrul stated that the energy ministry maintained the fuel rates as long as it could and that the government even reduced them in April 2016.

Once things go back to normal, the government will review the prices.
