Data show increases of over 60 centres a litre for both petrol and diesel.
The Department of Mineral Resources and Energy is yet to confirm the adjusted prices, which normally kick in on the first Wednesday of every month.

“So, the question is, will oil prices increase much further in months to come? Our international price may go back to $85 to $86 (a barrel), and that will have a detrimental effect, of course, on South Africa's diesel and petrol price."
