Petrol price in Pakistan today has gone up after OGRA announced its latest fortnightly fuel price revision effective 22 August 2026. Both petrol and high speed diesel are more expensive this fortnight, adding pressure on commuters and businesses across the country.
New Petrol and Diesel Prices in Pakistan
The new OGRA fuel prices are now in effect from 22 August 2026. Here is a full breakdown of the new petrol price and diesel price in Pakistan:
| Fuel | New Price | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol (Super) | Rs 341.59 per litre | +Rs 4.08 |
| High Speed Diesel | Rs 368.29 per litre | +Rs 5.23 |
Why Did Fuel Prices Change?
OGRA reviews fuel prices on a fortnightly basis, and adjustments are driven mainly by global crude oil market movements and the Pakistani rupee exchange rate against the US dollar. When international oil prices rise or the rupee weakens, the cost of importing fuel goes up, and OGRA passes that increase on to consumers through its regular price notifications. This latest revision reflects those global and currency pressures in the current review period.
What It Means for You
With petrol now at Rs 341.59 and the diesel price in Pakistan climbing to Rs 368.29 per litre, everyday transport costs will feel the pinch. Rickshaw and cab fares may edge up, and goods transported by road could see slight price increases in markets. If you drive regularly, expect your monthly fuel budget to increase by a few hundred rupees depending on how much you fill up each fortnight.
