The government on Monday increased the prices of petrol and high-speed diesel (HSD) by Rs12.90 and 3.72 per litre, respectively, amid volatility in international oil markets.
Under the revised rates, petrol will now cost Rs358.77 per litre, while HSD will be priced at Rs381.77 per litre.
According to a notification issued by the Petroleum Division, the new fuel prices will be effective for September 8.
Ogra has also begun publishing daily petroleum prices on its website to improve transparency and allow changes in international oil prices to be passed on to consumers more quickly.
