Prices of petrol, diesel kerosene and gas were increased from midnight yesterday. Ceylon Petroleum Corporation sources said petrol and kerosene would be increased by Rs. 10 a litre while diesel would go up by Rs. 3.

Meanwhile, the price of a 12.5 kg cylinder of Litro gas was increased by Rs. 238 with effect from midnight yesterday. Trade Ministry sources said the new price of a Litro gas cylinder would now be Rs. 1890. The new price of 95 Octane Petrol will be Rs 143 a litre while 90 Octane petrol will cost Rs 125.

I told after elections the fuels prices would go up and it would be great for LIOC! ( A company already having great earnings per share)
But many disagreed with me saying there is small chance as it has not in the past! Now it is there for all to see! Very Happy

This is a sleeping giant. Once/if a run start this will bring very decent profit. Current financials justify. Think people were always worried about the volatility in the industry.

Let me disclose further that I have been holding this for 3-4 months now. Hope my holding effort will be justified soon;-)

Agree with Rajitha 100%.

I also mentioned this fact under some topic.

Mid term the price may increase over 22 min. due to the price advantage.
Lets see.

I too agree with Rajitha. Net Asset Per Share is Rs 17.51. Currently trading on PER 6. I am holding this share which I collected below the NVPS. I believe this should trade lower PER but not below 12.

I've seen them topping the no1 businesses on a magazine, but my only concern is the losses LIOC has made in the past.. while they can earn much and show the profits how can those losses be compansated...

This is one lovely stock which has got anchored around 18 for the last 2 years or so. I have heard many positives of this sort in the past too; but the share price has seldom broken its range......
