This article is also available in Bahasa Malaysia.

Trying to make sense of your BUDI MADANI RON95 (BUDI95) subsidy? Worried about pumping too much or too little? Need to help your parents "do the math"? Here’s a clear guide to help you (and your family), understand how it all works, and how TNG eWallet helps you track it effortlessly.

Why use BUDI95 in TNG eWallet

With BUDI95 in TNG eWallet, you can refuel at all participating petrol stations across Malaysia, no need to switch between apps.

Because your TNG eWallet account is already verified (eKYC) and linked to your phone, you don’t need to show your physical MyKad, it’s automatically secure and tied to your identity.

And if you’re refuelling at PETRONAS, you can still enjoy your BUDI95 subsidy seamlessly through SETEL for extra convenience.

These make BUDI95 in TNG eWallet the easiest way to manage and enjoy your monthly fuel subsidy, safely, securely, and everywhere you drive.

What is BUDI95?

First things first: BUDI MADANI RON95 or BUDI95 is a fuel subsidy programme, not free fuel. With this programme, Malaysians with a valid driving licence can buy up to 300 litres of RON95 at a subsidised price each month. It’s designed to ensure the lower price reaches the right people, reduce misuse, and support long-term financial sustainability.

How the BUDI95 subsidy is calculated

Here’s how your monthly subsidy value is determined.

Item	Price/Value
Regular pump/market price	RM2.60/L
Subsidised price	RM1.99/L
Government subsidy per litre	RM2.60 - RM1.99 = RM0.61/L
Monthly allocation	300L per person per month
Monthly subsidy value	RM0.61 x RM300 litre = RM183

* Pump price and subsidised price are correct as of 1 October 2025.

How to read your BUDI95 balance in TNG eWallet

When you open BUDI95 in TNG eWallet, you’ll see a simple summary of your remaining balance and usage.

Remaining balance and percentage: How much of your 300L quota you still have. The more BUDI95 you use, the lower the number of litres and percentage it will be.

Remaining value (RM): The subsidy amount left for the month.

Note: This is automatically updated whether you pay via e-wallets, cash, or card

Participating stations: Displays stations that accept BUDI95 payments via TNG eWallet, including PETRONAS (via SETEL), Shell, Petron, BHPetrol, Caltex, PETROS, and Buraq Oil.

Fuel price: Displays both subsidised price (RM1.99/L) and pump price, which is the market unsubsidised price (RM2.60/L)

Payment details section

Purchase history: Details of where, when, how much you paid, and how many subsidised litres were utilised

Note: This is only applicable for transactions made via BUDI95 in your TNG eWallet. If you use other payment methods, you may see “You have not bought any fuel yet” or that it's not reflected here. Don’t worry, you can see the full transaction history on www.budimadani.gov.my

Example: Pumping RM50 of fuel

Because your monthly BUDI95 quota is tracked by litres, not ringgit spent, here’s how a RM50 refuel affects your balance:

Item	Calculation
Subsidised litres used	RM50 ÷ RM1.99 per litre ≈ 25.1 litres
Subsidy value used from your monthly allocation	25.1L × RM0.61 = RM15.31
Remaining balance after this transaction	Remaining balance in litres: 300L − 25.1L = 274.9L Remaining value in RM: RM183 − RM15.31 = RM167.69 Percentage of quota remaining: 274.9 ÷ 300 = 92%

What happens if you finish your BUDI95 balance?

Once you’ve reached your 300-litre quota (or the full RM183 subsidy) for the month, you can still refuel as usual, but at the normal pump/market price of RM2.60/L instead of the subsidised RM1.99/L. Your quota resets on the 1st of every month, so the subsidised quota will be available again then.
