  "summary": "The government has announced a reduction in petrol and High Speed Diesel (HSD) prices in Pakistan. The ex-depot petrol price has decreased by Rs1.49 to Rs387.54 per litre, while HSD prices have fallen by Rs2.73 to Rs402.24 per litre. These reductions are based on the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority's (OGRA) seven-working-day rolling average of the daily Platts Arab Gulf Means Price. Import costs for both products have also been adjusted, with petrol dropping to Rs276.78 per litre and HSD to Rs317.24 per litre. The government levies and profit margins remain unchanged, with both fuels carrying a Petroleum Levy of Rs80 per litre, a Climate Support Levy of Rs5 per litre, and profit margins of Rs9.98 per litre for dealers and Rs7.87 per litre for oil marketing companies.",
