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 for 12 September 2026:
| Fuel | New Price | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol (Super) | Rs 375.82 per litre | +Rs 5.02 |
| High Speed Diesel | Rs 403.32 per litre | +Rs 5.28 |
Why Did Fuel Prices Change?
OGRA fuel prices are revised on a fortnightly basis and are closely tied to international crude oil rates and the Pakistani rupee exchange rate. When global oil prices rise or the rupee weakens against the dollar, the cost of importing fuel goes up and OGRA adjusts domestic prices accordingly to reflect those changes. This latest hike follows that same pattern of regular market-based revisions.
What It Means for You
With the new petrol price at Rs 375.82 and the diesel price in Pakistan now at Rs 403.32 per litre, everyday transport costs will feel the pinch. Rickshaw and cab fares may edge up, and goods transported by diesel-powered trucks and vans could also get slightly more expensive. People who commute daily or run small businesses should plan their fuel budgets accordingly starting 12 September 2026.
