The federal government on Sunday increased the price of petrol by Rs9.66, taking the rate to Rs289.41 per litre.
The price of high-speed diesel (HSD) has been slashed by Rs3.32 per litre to Rs282.24.
The new prices take effect from April 01, 2024.
Business Recorder had earlier reported that the government may opt for a significant hike in ex-depot petroleum products prices.
The recent surge in petrol prices is attributed to an increase in premium from $12.15 per barrel to $13.507 per barrel, marking a $1.45 per barrel increment.
In India and Bangladesh, it is about 320. Why can't Pakistanis pay the same.

Meanwhile, the reasons for heavy levy, tax, etc., are not addressed, and everyone made a fool by the circus masters.

Nawaz Sharif started his homeward journey from London with the slogan to bring down 'mehanghai'. His government is now on a suicidal course.
