The company, in Di Linh District, was fined VNĐ30 million (US$1,300), and its trading permission was withdrawn for three months.
It was forced to hand in VNĐ65.3 million ($2,900) to the State budget, equivalent to the amount it earned by shortchanging petrol.
On May 25, inspectors from the department conducted a surprise check on the company’s petrol station. The company had used an electric chip to commit fraud while selling the petrol. For every 10 litres, it rigged 0.886 litres.
