Petrol price cut by Rs1.65, HSD by Rs0.88 per litre

Mettis Global reported that the Ministry of Energy's Petroleum Division has lowered ex-depot rates, cutting high-speed diesel by Rs0.88 per litre and petrol by Rs1.65 per litre. The reductions apply from September 19, 2026 through September 21, 2026, with the revised rates set by the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA). The adjustment follows the pricing framework that the federal government operates, and it was prompted by global developments, including shifts in Platts quotations, premiums and incidental costs.

The table published with the notice compares the prices in force on September 18, 2026 with the new prices for September 19, 2026. Diesel moves from Rs424.92 to Rs424.04, while petrol falls from Rs390.79 to Rs389.14. Both fuels therefore register lower ex-depot rates than the previous day, with petrol recording the larger rupee decline.

Because the notice covers a short window, the listed rates apply only for those few days. The notice does not name any listed company, so the update reads as a broad fuel price change.
