The petrol price in Pakistan today has gone up by Rs 6.88 per litre, effective 17 September 2026. OGRA has also raised the diesel price in Pakistan by Rs 5.62 per litre in the latest fortnightly revision.
New Petrol and Diesel Prices in Pakistan
Here is the full breakdown of the new OGRA fuel prices effective 17 September 2026:
| Fuel | New Price | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol (Super) | Rs 391.22 per litre | +Rs 6.88 |
| High Speed Diesel | Rs 421.45 per litre | +Rs 5.62 |
The new petrol price of Rs 391.22 and the revised diesel price in Pakistan of Rs 421.45 are both in effect from today, 17 September 2026.
Why Did Fuel Prices Change?
OGRA fuel prices are reviewed on a fortnightly basis and are tied to global crude oil trends and the Pakistani rupee exchange rate. When international oil prices rise or the rupee weakens against the dollar, the cost of importing fuel goes up, and that increase is passed on to consumers through OGRA’s regular price revision mechanism. The adjustments this fortnight reflect those pressures in the global energy market.
What It Means for You
With petrol now at Rs 391.22 and high speed diesel at Rs 421.45 per litre, daily commuters, rickshaw and taxi riders, and small business owners can expect slightly higher transport costs. Diesel powers most goods vehicles and public buses across Pakistan, so the Rs 5.62 increase could nudge up the price of everyday goods and intercity travel fares in the coming days. It is a good time to plan fuel expenses and combine trips where possible to manage the added cost.
