DRIVERS using super gasoline say they are delighted for the "ease up" on super gasoline prices announced by Finance Minister Davendranath Tancoo in his 2025/2026 budget presentation on October 13.

In his first major announcement during the presentation, Tancoo said effective immediately, there will be a $1 decrease per litre of super gasoline. He said this decision, as mandated by Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, would “benefit every single citizen of TT.”

The announcement reverses part of the former PNM administration’s phased removal of fuel subsidies, which had led to steady increases in pump prices over the past decade.
