Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC) has reported consistent monthly profits since the introduction of the automatic fuel pricing formula in March 2024, driven by regular price adjustments and margins on petrol, octane, and diesel sales.
State-run Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC) has been making profits every month since the introduction of the automatic fuel pricing formula last year.
"We are making a profit as petroleum products are being sold at higher rates than the cost prices," said a senior official at BPC.
He said the corporation has been consistently profitable since March 2024, when the government first introduced the automated pricing system.
BPC currently earns up to 2.0 per cent profit on diesel sales and as much as 10 per cent on octane and petrol sales.
Benefiting from regular adjustments under the new mechanism, BPC recorded profits of around Tk 20.50 billion in the fiscal year 2024-25, according to Ministry of Finance data.
