Ieftinirea motorinei a ținut doar o zi. De ce prețurile au trecut din nou de 10 lei: „Autoritățile ar trebui să intervină”

Despite a 25% reduction in excise duty on diesel, prices remain above 10 lei per liter. Authorities are urged to investigate potential price manipulation by fuel retailers. Initial price drops were quickly reversed by many companies, limiting the expected benefits for consumers. The National Authority for Consumer Protection has begun inspections to ensure compliance with pricing regulations. The Council for Competition found that major fuel operators adhered to previous profit margin caps, but further scrutiny is needed for some companies. The situation raises concerns about whether external factors are being used to justify high prices instead of passing on tax reductions to consumers.
