27 Sep 2011Motorists could be paying R10.50 a litre for 95 octane unleaded petrol in Gauteng from Wednesday next week.
The sharp drop in the rand in recent weeks has widened the gap between the R10.18 a litre that consumers are paying at the pump and the prices of a basket of global benchmark petroleum products.
The average daily underrecovery has been climbing steadily and yesterday it was running at nearly 32c a litre.
