ICMS sobre combustíveis sobe em 2026: gasolina vai a R$ 1,57 por litro, diesel a R$ 1,17 e gás de cozinha terá acréscimo de R$ 1,05.

Gasoline Will Increase by R$ 0.10 Per Liter Starting January 2026 with ICMS Increase; Diesel and Cooking Gas Will Also Rise.

The National Council of Fiscal Policy (Confaz) published in the Official Gazette of the Union the decision to increase the ICMS on gasoline, diesel, and cooking gas starting January 2026.

The measure directly affects consumers and can have an impact on the entire economy.

Increase Defined by Confaz

In the case of gasoline, the tax amount rises by R$ 0.10 per liter, reaching R$ 1.57.

Justification for the Increase

According to the National Committee of Secretaries of Finance, Finance, Revenue, or Taxation of the States and the Federal District (Comsefaz), the decision considers the average monthly prices published by the National Petroleum Agency (ANP).

The evaluated period was from February to August 2025, compared to the same interval in 2024.

Therefore, the calculation takes into account the variation recorded in the market, which ensures, according to the secretaries, balance in state revenue.

Expected Economic Impact

As fuels function as a key price, the effects of the ICMS increase tend to spread to other sectors. This happens because gasoline, diesel, and cooking gas influence transportation, logistics, and daily household consumption.

Moreover, experts remind that adjustments in this segment tend to put pressure on inflation.

It is worth noting that Petrobras abandoned, at the beginning of the government of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, the policy of international parity.

Previously, fuels were adjusted based on the price of oil and the variation of the dollar.

Now, price formation follows a different criterion, but the state tax will again weigh on the population’s expenses.

Expected Economic Impact

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Júlia Pimentel, an 11-year-old from Minas Gerais, independently invented a new formula to calculate the square root using simple addition and multiplication, and her method was published in one of the most important mathematical scientific journals in Brazil.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

The Atacama Desert, the driest place on Earth, was covered in flowers and turned into a colorful carpet with more than 200 species in the phenomenon called “desert bloom,” when atypical rains awaken seeds that had remained dormant in the soil for many years.

Without her own home and pressured by rent, a 25-year-old bought a small 15-meter boat, gradually renovated the interior by herself, transformed the interior with paint, new flooring, a larger bathroom, and started living on the canals, paying much less per month.

Heir bought 23,000 degraded acres in the Scottish Highlands, fenced the area, planted nearly 1 million native trees, and transformed empty mountains into a forest officially recognized after meeting 15 evaluation criteria over 20 years.

A city has planted 880,000 trees and 2.5 million smaller plants since 2016, reduced the temperature by up to 3°C in some areas, and won an international award for using vegetation to combat urban heat in Colombia.

For nearly 35 years, a famous luxury hotel in the United States concealed a secret bunker with a 25-ton door, over a thousand bunks, a dining hall for 400, and space designed to save the entire Congress from nuclear war.
