RON95 will be priced at RM1.95 per litre, RON97 RM2.30 per litre and diesel at RM2 a litre, automotive news website Paultan.org said.
This is higher than January prices of RM1.85 (RON95), RM2.25 (RON97) and RM1.60 (diesel).
Pump prices were at lowest point this year in March.
Compared to then, diesel prices show the steepest hike of 48 percent.

The government determines the prices of fuel through a managed float system.
It takes into account several factors, including the global price of crude oil and the country's currency strength in the previous month.
