Pakistan's government has raised the price of high-speed diesel by Rs2.29 per litre to Rs402.96, while keeping petrol unchanged at Rs377.91 per litre. The rates apply from 31 October through 2 November 2026, according to an Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority notification reported by Dawn.
What are the fuel prices?
- Petrol: Rs377.91 per litre, unchanged from the preceding notification.
- High-speed diesel: Rs402.96 per litre, up Rs2.29 from Rs400.67.
These figures apply for the stated period. They should not be presented as a forecast for prices after 2 November.
What changed?
The diesel rise follows other price adjustments during the week. On the preceding day, the high-speed diesel rate stood at Rs400.67 per litre while petrol was already at Rs377.91. The new announcement leaves petrol unchanged and increases diesel.
Why could diesel prices matter?
High-speed diesel is used in commercial transport and in parts of the agricultural and industrial sectors. Changes in the notified rate can affect operating costs, but this announcement alone does not establish how much businesses or consumers will ultimately pay in additional transport charges.
How can readers check the figures?
The announcement is documented in Dawn's reporting on the regulator's notice. Pakistan's Ministry of Energy also lists the petroleum pricing release dated 30 October on its official website.
