Petrol price in Pakistan today has gone up as the government announced new OGRA fuel prices effective 10 October 2026. Both petrol and diesel have seen a moderate increase in this latest fortnightly revision.
New Petrol and Diesel Prices in Pakistan
The new petrol price and diesel price in Pakistan are now officially in effect. Here is a full breakdown of the latest OGRA fuel prices:
| Fuel | New Price | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol (Super) | Rs 398.30 per litre | +Rs 1.65 |
| High Speed Diesel | Rs 396.24 per litre | +Rs 1.30 |
These revised rates are effective from 10 October 2026 across all petrol stations in Pakistan.
Why Did Fuel Prices Change?
OGRA fuel prices are revised on a fortnightly basis based on movements in global crude oil markets and the exchange rate of the Pakistani rupee against the US dollar. When international oil prices rise or the rupee weakens, OGRA recommends adjustments to keep the local pricing in line with actual import costs. The government then notifies the new rates accordingly. This revision on 10 October 2026 reflects those ongoing global and domestic economic factors.
What It Means for You
With petrol now at Rs 398.30 and the diesel price in Pakistan sitting at Rs 396.24 per litre, commuters and businesses will feel a small but real pinch. Daily transport costs, rickshaw and cab fares, and the price of goods moved by freight vehicles may edge up slightly. If you are on a tight monthly budget, this is a good time to plan your fuel spending carefully and cut unnecessary trips where possible.
