MANILA, Philippines – The Department of Energy (DOE) will investigate over 300 gasoline stations that have begun imposing additional tax on oil products.
According to DOE, a total of 268 gasoline stations of Petron and 32 from Flying V were discovered to have imposed the second tranche of excise tax on oil despite the agency’s call on oil firms to defer the implementation until mid of January.
