China's National Development and Reform Commission, the country's top economic planning agency, said the benchmark retailing prices of petrol and diesel will rise by 300 yuan (US$44.12) per tonne, or about 0.22 yuan per liter or 0.26 yuan per liter, respectively.

It is the seventh fuel price adjustment since the country adopted a new fuel pricing mechanism, which took effect on January 1.
