Budi Diesel interim cash assistance disbursed today – RM100 extra for Individu and Agri-Komoditi categories

The finance ministry has announced that the RM400 Budi Diesel interim cash assistance is now fully disbursed for April 2026. This comes after today’s disbursement of an extra RM100 for Budi Individu and Budi Agri-Komoditi recipients, on top of the RM300 that went into their bank accounts on April 8.

The upsized monthly cash assistance for diesel users was announced on April 14. This is the second time that the cash assistance has been increased since the Middle East conflict began – it went up from RM200 to RM300 last month.

One way of seeing this is that the recipient gets the first 67 litres of diesel ‘free’ and then pay full market price beyond that. The current price of diesel in Peninsular Malaysia is RM5.97 per litre, down from last week’s RM6.72 per litre. The subsidised RM2.15 per litre rate remains in effect in Sabah and Sarawak.

As it was when introduced, the diesel cash assistance is only for diesel vehicle owners with an annual income of below RM100k, unlike the blanket Budi Madani RON 95 (Budi95) for all Malaysians.

MoF says that the cash assistance is expected to benefit a sizeable number of diesel users, including over 200,000 farmers and smallholders under Budi Agri-Komoditi, with additional funds of around RM20 million per month for them. Meanwhile, Budi Individu is expected to benefit around 150,000 individual diesel vehicle owners in Peninsular Malaysia, with additional funds of around RM15 million per month being allocated for this.
