Mexico's Diesel Price Stabilization Map Highlights Non‑Compliant Stations

The Mexican government continues its voluntary agreement to keep diesel below 27 MXN per litre (25.39 MXN in border zones) and regular gasoline under 24 MXN per litre until August. About 84 % of stations – 8,603 – have joined the pact, while 1,538 stations still sell diesel above the reference price. An interactive map released by Pemex and the energy ministry identifies non‑compliant stations; 618 stations entered the agreement between 12‑17 July, and 60 stations in Chihuahua – 23 of them in Ciudad Juárez – were flagged for exceeding the border‑zone ceiling.

To cushion international oil‑price shocks, the Treasury raised weekly subsidies: 71.58 % of the diesel IEPS is covered, leaving users to pay only 2.09 MXN tax per litre; for regular gasoline, 38.18 % is covered, reducing the tax to 4.14 MXN per litre. These measures are combined with fiscal stimulus on the IEPS, reduced electronic‑payment commissions, Pemex‑supported competitive fuel supply, and logistics and security actions.

The diesel price cap has squeezed profit margins for some stations, as reported in Tamaulipas, where operators absorb lower margins to honor the 27‑MXN ceiling.
