The federal government has increased the prices of petrol and high-speed diesel (HSD) by more than Rs13 per litre each, according to an official notification issued by the Petroleum Division.
Under the revised rates, the price of petrol has been increased by Rs 13.18 per litre, bringing the new price to Rs 310.71 per litre. Meanwhile, the price of high-speed diesel has gone up by Rs 13.80 per litre, setting the new rate at Rs 323.30 per litre.
The new prices became effective from July 11, 2026 and are expected to impact transportation costs, logistics, and the prices of various goods and services across the country.
Officials have linked the price adjustment to fluctuations in international crude oil prices and changes in import-related costs. Analysts note that increases in fuel prices often have a direct effect on inflation, as transportation and production expenses rise.
The latest increase comes as consumers continue to face pressure from higher living costs. Transporters, businesses, and ordinary citizens are likely to feel the impact of the revised fuel rates in the coming days.
The government periodically reviews petroleum prices based on global market trends, exchange rates, and recommendations from relevant authorities. Further adjustments may depend on future changes in international oil prices and domestic economic conditions.
