Fuel costs in Pakistan have skyrocketed by almost Rs. 100 per liter since July 11. Petrol prices have climbed from Rs. 310.71 per liter to Rs. 391.22 per liter, a rise of Rs. 80.51. High-speed diesel has also seen a significant jump, from Rs. 323.30 per liter to Rs. 421.45 per liter, an increase of Rs. 98.15. This substantial hike in fuel prices is anticipated to inflate transportation and logistics expenses, potentially impacting public transport fares, food costs, and household finances.
Prior to July 2026, Pakistan's fuel pricing was evaluated and adjusted every two weeks. However, the government subsequently switched to a weekly pricing system to enable domestic fuel prices to react more swiftly to fluctuations in international oil prices and the rupee-dollar exchange rate. In July 2026, the government further streamlined the system by initiating the shift from weekly to daily petroleum pricing.
This new mechanism ensures that alterations in international oil prices and other pertinent pricing factors are now reflected more frequently, albeit at a higher cost.
