How Much Did the Petrol Price Increase Today?
By 88 paisa a small move, taking petrol from Rs. 392.76 to Rs. 393.64.
On a 40-litre fill, that increase costs you about Rs. 35 more than last time. The full tank now comes to roughly Rs. 15,746, and a car returning 12 km per litre costs around Rs. 32.80 per kilometre in fuel.
Diesel Falls Again
High-speed diesel is down Rs. 1.88 to Rs. 397.76 the second consecutive revision in which the two fuels have moved in opposite directions.
The gap between them has narrowed sharply, from Rs. 6.88 to just Rs. 4.12. Diesel remains the more expensive of the two, which matters beyond diesel drivers: HSD moves freight and runs farm machinery, so a cut there eases transport costs across the board.
Why They Move Separately
Petrol and diesel are separate refined products with their own international benchmarks and import costs, so a single "oil price" headline never explains both. Local rates are then built from those costs plus premiums and freight, the exchange rate and government levies — our guide to oil prices in Pakistan sets out the full chain.
Where to Confirm the Rates
Always check the source. The Petroleum Division publishes dated notifications on its official petroleum price updates page. Rates circulating on social media ahead of an announcement are speculation and are often wrong.
Final Thoughts
The petrol price increase in Pakistan today is modest at 88 paisa, leaving petrol at Rs. 393.64 and diesel at Rs. 397.76 after a Rs. 1.88 cut. Small increases accumulate, though which is why interest keeps growing in alternatives, as our coverage of rising petrol costs in Pakistan and electric cars in Pakistan tracks.
