Subsidy

Regular and premium gasoline will drop more than 4 lempiras per gallon starting Monday, November 9, while diesel remains unchanged for a sixth consecutive week as the government absorbs rising international costs.

President Nasry Asfura announced that gasoline prices will drop by 1–2.62 lempiras per gallon on November 2, while diesel will rise 8.68 lempiras but the government will absorb the increase through a subsidy.

Gasoline and diesel prices will increase on August 10, with diesel rising the most (L4.80 per gallon in Tegucigalpa), while the government continues to subsidize domestic cooking gas to cushion the impact on households.

The Energy Ministry announced price increases for gasoline, diesel, and kerosene effective Monday, August 3, with diesel and kerosene seeing the largest jumps; domestic cooking gas remains subsidized.
