The move to daily fuel price revisions continues to create uncertainty for consumers and businesses alike. Every night, motorists wait for the latest prices, while transporters and retailers closely monitor changes that can affect operating costs. Although occasional reductions provide some relief, industry stakeholders, including petrol pump owners, have called for the restoration of the previous monthly review cycle, arguing that it offered greater stability and predictability.
