On October 1, 2025, Pakistan’s federal government announced a Rs4.07 per litre increase in petrol prices, raising it from Rs264.61 to Rs268.68, effective until October 15.

According to a Finance Division notification, high-speed diesel (HSD) prices also rose by Rs 4.04, from Rs 272.77 to Rs 276.81 per litre, based on recommendations from the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (Ogra) and relevant ministries.

In the previous fortnight, petrol prices remained stable at Rs264.61, while diesel increased by Rs2.78 per litre. The latest adjustments mark a continued upward trend in fuel costs, impacting various sectors of the economy.

High-Speed DieselRs272.77Rs276.18+Rs4.04

Petrol powers small vehicles, rickshaws, and bicycles, making the price hike particularly burdensome for middle- and lower-income households that rely on daily commuting. High-speed diesel, used in trucks, buses, trains, and farm machinery such as tractors and tube wells, drives inflation, directly raising the prices of vegetables and essential food items.

Fuel price hikes, affecting 70% of Pakistan’s transport sector (Pakistan Bureau of Statistics, 2025), contribute to a 5% rise in food inflation (SBP, 2025). With 60% of households using petrol-powered vehicles (CSDS, 2025), the increase puts a strain on budgets and could spark public discontent.
