PETALING JAYA: The retail price of RON97 petrol will drop by 10 sen from RM4.15 to RM4.05 per litre, while those of RON95 and diesel will remain unchanged for the week from Sept 22 to 28.

The Finance Ministry said today the ceiling price of RON95 petrol and diesel would remain at RM2.05 and RM2.15 per litre, respectively, even though the real market price of the two products had risen beyond the current ceiling price.

It said the prices were set based on the weekly retail prices of petroleum products using the Automatic Pricing Mechanism formula.
