1. Last Month Diesel Price South Africa: current diesel price

  • Put the answer first. Use a current-price placeholder until the official figure has been verified, then add the effective date and units in c/l or R/l.

  • Avoid presenting a forecast, estimate or old table as the latest official price.

2. 50ppm vs 500ppm diesel

  • Cover diesel-specific needs such as grade differences, inland/coastal context, commercial use cases and fleet relevance.
  • Answer whether the section is about 50ppm, 500ppm, wholesale context or general retail diesel pricing.
  • Avoid blending petrol and diesel pricing rules without explaining the difference.
