On the first day of sale, 14,054 tons of AI-80 brand gasoline was put up for sale on the Republican Commodity and Raw Materials Exchange, and 9,123.5 tons of it (65 percent) was sold.

The oil bases of Uzbekneftegaz JSC, gas stations and other legal entities took part in exchange trading to purchase gas for their own needs.

As a result of sales, the average price of AI-80 gasoline increased by 0.1 percent compared to its initial price and amounted to 3,812.5 thousand soums per ton.

Prices that are formed during exchange trading do not include excise taxes, loading, transportation and other expenses.
