The national government agreed with the oil companies on a new 4% increase in fuel prices over the next four months.
The increases will take effect tomorrow and will be valid until August 15. With this measure, the government seeks to protect consumers and promote stability in the market.
Until yesterday in the missionary capital, in Shell the super gasoline cost $228.80 and today it could be worth $237.90; while the V-Power was $267.70 and can cost $278.41. On the other hand, in the Axion the super cost $215 and today it can cost $223.60, while the Quantium was $267 and today it would cost $277.68. Finally, in the YPF the super gasoline was worth $208 and today it would cost $216.30 and the Infinia was $268.90 and could go to $279.60
Cecha nonconformity
After the announcement of a new fuel price agreement between the government and the oil companies, the Confederation of Hydrocarbons and Related Trade Entities of the Argentine Republic (Cecha) expressed that the measure puts the stability of service stations at risk and the source of work.
Within this framework, after learning of the decision of the national government to extend the Fair Prices program for fuels, the leaders of Cecha warned that the measure endangers the subsistence of the Service Stations and the thousands of sources of work that today guarantees the sector.
“With this gap, we cannot pay the wage increases agreed with the union,” they said. In addition, they added that although the implemented program gives some predictability, it puts the activity at risk.
