Approximately 5.4 TL discount was given to diesel

The liter price of diesel decreased to 95 TL in Istanbul with a discount of approximately 5.4 TL on diesel, reflected at the pump on November 7. This was the second biggest discount on fuel in two days, following the approximately 6 TL discount on gasoline the day before. However, the gap has not closed: Diesel is still more than 20 TL per liter more expensive than gasoline in Istanbul.

The amount of the discount varies between 5.40 and 5.47 TL depending on sources and distribution companies. According to news, the reason for the discount is the decline in international product prices. As of Sunday, there is no new increase or discount on diesel prices.

Current prices of diesel after the discount

As of November 8, liter prices of diesel in major cities are as follows:

Istanbul European Side: 95.20 TL

Istanbul Anatolian Side: 95.00 TL

Ankara: 96.30 TL

Izmir: 96.60 TL

Before the discount, the price per liter of diesel was 100.50 TL in the European Side of Istanbul, 101.60 TL in Ankara and 101.90 TL in Izmir. Prices may differ by a few cents depending on the distribution company and district.

Latest situation in gasoline and LPG

Gasoline was discounted by approximately 6 TL on November 6. Today, a liter of gasoline is 74.60 TL in the European Side of Istanbul, 74.40 TL in the Anatolian Side, 75.60 TL in Ankara and 75.80 TL in Izmir.

There is no change in LPG. A liter of autogas is 50.70 TL on the European Side of Istanbul, 50.10 TL on the Anatolian Side, 50.79 TL in Ankara and 50.70 TL in Izmir.

Why is diesel more expensive than gasoline?

Pump prices in Türkiye consist of ex-refinery price, dollar/TL exchange rate, Special Consumption Tax, VAT and distribution and dealer margins. Since the international product price of diesel is higher than that of gasoline, the difference continues after the two discounts.
