The Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) has once again reduced the price of jet fuel used by airlines in the country‍‍`s domestic market.

The new rates were announced in a notification signed by BERC Secretary Md. Nazrul Islam Sarkar on Tuesday. According to the notification, the revised prices will take effect from 12:00 a.m. tonight and will remain in force until further notice.

Under the new pricing, the jet fuel price for domestic flights has been reduced to Tk 130.99 per litre for July, down from Tk 150.21 per litre. This marks a decrease of Tk 19.22 per litre.

For international flights, the price has been lowered from US$0.9808 per litre to US$0.8556 per litre.

The revised domestic price will apply to Bangladeshi operators on domestic routes, while the international rate will apply to both local and foreign airlines operating international flights.

The new pricing covers fuel supplied at Hazrat Shah Amanat International Airport in Chattogram, Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka, Jashore Airport, Osmani International Airport in Sylhet, Cox‍‍`s Bazar Airport, as well as any airports that become operational in the future.
