The petrol price in Pakistan today, effective 19 September 2026, has been reduced by Rs 1.65 per litre. Diesel has also been cut, giving some relief to commuters and businesses across the country.
The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) has announced the new OGRA fuel prices for the current fortnightly period, with both petrol and high speed diesel seeing a downward revision.
New Petrol and Diesel Prices in Pakistan
Here is a full breakdown of the new petrol price and diesel price in Pakistan effective 19 September 2026:
| Fuel | New Price | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol (Super) | Rs 389.14 per litre | -Rs 1.65 |
| High Speed Diesel | Rs 424.04 per litre | -Rs 0.88 |
Why Did Fuel Prices Change?
OGRA reviews fuel prices on a fortnightly basis, taking into account global crude oil market trends, the Pakistani rupee exchange rate, and international product prices. When global oil prices soften or the rupee gains ground, OGRA passes on some of that benefit to consumers through a reduction in the new petrol price and the diesel price in Pakistan. These OGRA fuel prices reflect the latest calculations based on those variables for this period.
What It Means for You
For everyday Pakistanis, even a small cut in fuel prices can ease pressure on the monthly budget. Motorcycle and car users will pay slightly less at the pump starting 19 September 2026, while the reduction in high speed diesel costs may gradually bring down transport and freight charges, which in turn can have a small positive effect on the prices of goods in local markets.
