Petrol price rises by Rs1.20, diesel falls by Rs0.17 per litre

Mettis Global reported that petrol in Pakistan rose by Rs1.20 per litre from October 15, 2026, while high-speed diesel fell by Rs0.17 per litre. The Ministry of Energy's Petroleum Division announced the revised ex-depot rates, which place petrol at Rs393.86 per litre compared with Rs392.66 a day earlier. Diesel now is priced at Rs396.65, down from Rs396.82 on October 14.

The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority carried out the revision under the fuel pricing system set by the federal government. According to the notice, the change was made because of global factors, including movements in Platts rates, premiums and incidental charges. The notification covers both high-speed diesel and motor spirit, the two products named in the revision. Both revised figures take effect from October 15, 2026.
