Subtitle: The new fuel prices took effect on October 28, 2026, bringing petrol down to Rs376.06 per litre while diesel increased to Rs398.07.
The federal government has revised petroleum prices in Pakistan, reducing petrol by Rs3.19 per litre while increasing the price of high-speed diesel by Rs2.25 per litre.
According to a press release issued by the Ministry of Energy’s Petroleum Division on October 27, the revised prices came into effect on October 28, 2026.
New Petrol and Diesel Prices
The revised rates are as follows:
- Petrol: Rs376.06 per litre, down from Rs379.25 — a reduction of Rs3.19.
- High-speed diesel: Rs398.07 per litre, up from Rs395.82 — an increase of Rs2.25.
The changes were made under the federal government’s petroleum pricing mechanism, with the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) revising ex-depot prices.
Why Have Fuel Prices Changed?
The government said the price changes reflect global market developments, including changes in Platts prices, premiums and other related costs.
The mixed adjustment means petrol users will pay less per litre, while diesel users will face a higher price.
Diesel is widely used in buses, trucks, agricultural machinery and goods transportation. Its price can affect transport and delivery costs, while petrol prices directly affect many private vehicle and motorcycle users.
Consumers are advised to check official government updates for any future changes in petroleum prices.
