China's state planner will raise the retail price of gasoline by 120 yuan per tonne and diesel by 115 yuan per tonne from Thursday.

The National Development and Reform Commission said in January that it would not lower domestic fuel prices while oil prices were below 40 US dollars a barrel.

That was due to falling U.S. production, supply constraints in Libya and the Americas, and a weak dollar.
