"Legal Notice No. 70 dated 15th April 2026, the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury has revised the Value Added Tax rate from 13% to 8%. Accordingly, we have recalculated the maximum retail pump prices that will be in force from 16th April 2026 to 14th May 2026 taking into account this revised Value Added Tax rates.

 As a result, the pump price per litre in Nairobi of Super Petrol and Diesel decreases by KShs.9.37/litre and KShs.10.21/litre respectively while that of Kerosene remains unchanged. Consequently, the level of subsidy on Kerosene reduces from the current KShs.108.10/litre to KShs.96.56/litre. 

In Nairobi, Super Petrol, Diesel and Kerosene now retail at Kshs.197.60, Kshs.196.63 and Kshs.152.78. 

The updated petroleum pump price list is attached as Annex I while the breakdown of the pump prices in Nairobi is attached as Annex II."
