Iran has increased the price of subsidized gasoline for heavy users to curb fuel consumption and smuggling. The new rate is 50,000 rials per litre for those consuming over 160 litres monthly, while others can buy 60 litres at 15,000 rials and an additional 100 litres at 30,000 rials. The move aims to manage demand without inciting public unrest, as seen in 2019 protests. Taxi quotas remain unchanged.
