Petrol price jumps Rs5.58, diesel up Rs4.18

Mettis Global reported that fuel rates set at depot level climb from September 9, 2026, after the Ministry of Energy's Petroleum Division revised them. High-speed diesel goes up by Rs4.18 per litre, while petrol rises by Rs5.58 per litre, so both products get dearer at the same time. The Petroleum Division's revision was dated September 8, 2026, the day before the new rates take effect.

OGRA issued the revised figures under the federal government's pricing mechanism for September 9, 2026. Petrol moves up to Rs364.35 per litre from Rs358.77, while high-speed diesel goes to Rs385.95 from Rs381.77. The regulator's table lists the previous rate for September 8 alongside each new price, and the change column shows the amounts added.

Under the current arrangement, OGRA computes and notifies these petroleum prices every day. The report does not name any listed company, so the revision is covered here as a general fuel price notice.
