Minister of Finance Bezalel Smotrich today announced that he will issue an order reducing excise tax on fuel, which will cancel tomorrow’s planned price hike.
The maximum price of government price controlled 95 octane gasoline at self-service pumps in Israel is due to rise by NIS 0.33 per liter at midnight tonight February 1 to NIS 7.17 per liter. But following the excise tax cut, which is likely to come into effect later this week, the price will return to its current level of NIS 6.84 per liter.
