Petrol price in Pakistan today has gone down by Rs 3.13 per litre, offering some relief to consumers, but diesel users will feel a pinch as High Speed Diesel climbs higher. OGRA fuel prices for the new fortnightly period effective 05 September 2026 are now official.
New Petrol and Diesel Prices in Pakistan
Here is a full breakdown of the new petrol price and diesel price in Pakistan as announced for 05 September 2026:
| Fuel | New Price | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol (Super) | Rs 345.87 per litre | -Rs 3.13 |
| High Speed Diesel | Rs 378.05 per litre | +Rs 3.74 |
Why Did Fuel Prices Change?
OGRA fuel prices are revised on a fortnightly basis and are directly tied to movement in global crude oil markets and the Pakistani rupee exchange rate. When international oil prices shift or the rupee weakens or strengthens against the dollar, OGRA adjusts its recommended prices accordingly to reflect the actual cost of importing fuel. This round, petrol saw a slight global price softening that translated into savings at the pump, while diesel tracked a different import cost trend, pushing the diesel price in Pakistan upward.
What It Means for You
If you drive a petrol car or use a motorcycle, you will save a small amount every time you fill up starting 05 September 2026, which adds up over a full month of daily commuting. However, the rise in High Speed Diesel will likely push up transport and logistics costs, meaning prices of goods, public transport fares, and food delivery could edge higher in the coming days, squeezing household budgets that were already under pressure.
