The increment has been attributed to the increased cost of fuel imports which rose by an average of 1.9 per cent across the month of October.
The pump prices are inclusive of 8% Value Added Tax (VAT) in line with the provisions of the Finance Act 2018 and the revised rates for excise duty adjusted for inflation as per Legal Notice No. 109 of 9th July 2019.
Last month, Petrol retailed at Ksh108.05 per litre, diesel at Ksh101.96 and Kerosene at Ksh101.08 in Nairobi.
