The federal government has reduced the price of petrol by Rs3.93 per litre, bringing the new rate to Rs386.30, with the revised price taking effect from October 17 and remaining in force until October 19, 2026.
The decision, announced on Friday, provides limited relief to motorists at a time when fuel costs continue to place pressure on household budgets and transportation expenses. The reduction applies to petrol, while the price of high-speed diesel has been kept unchanged at Rs396.96 per litre.
According to the reported petroleum price notification, the new petrol rate will remain applicable for the three-day period from October 17 to October 19. Petroleum prices are closely watched in Pakistan because changes in fuel costs can influence transportation fares, the movement of goods and the operating expenses of businesses.
