Company fuel allowance

Q: I am working in a private company. Company has provided me a company maintained car for official and personal use. Allowed limit of fuel is 150 liters per month. Due to short traveling, I did not use the allowed quantity of fuel. Kindly guide me in the light of Islamic principles. May I use the extra fuel for my personal vehicle?

A: When the company has allowed only the use of the vehicle for that amount of fuel then it is not permissible to transfer that fuel into your car without their permission.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
