Indonesia’s Pertamina Patra Niaga is addressing public concern over a price of Rp18,040 per liter appearing on Pertalite fuel receipts. The company clarified this figure does not represent the actual economic cost of the fuel, but rather an internal calculation displayed on the receipt. Pertalite’s official, subsidized price remains lower. The displayed price is a component of internal accounting and is not charged to consumers. Pertamina Patra Niaga aims to prevent further misunderstanding regarding fuel pricing and ensure transparency. This explanation follows circulating information suggesting the receipt price reflected a hidden economic cost. The company has not specified whether the receipt format will be altered.
