How to Read the Petrol Price Archive
Effective Date
Each petrol-price entry includes an effective date.
This is the date associated with the saved petrol rate or pricing change. It helps readers understand when a particular price became applicable.
Always compare important dates and prices with the relevant official notification.
Petrol Price per Litre
Historical petrol rates are displayed in Pakistani rupees per litre.
The price shown represents the saved petrol rate associated with that effective date.
The archive may also summarise the latest, highest and lowest saved values for easier comparison.
Previous Petrol Price
The previous price is the petrol rate recorded immediately before the selected entry.
Comparing the current and previous values makes it easier to see how much the petrol rate changed.
Petrol Price Increase
A positive change means the petrol price increased compared with the previous saved record.
For example, if the previous rate was lower than the new rate, the archive may display the amount of the increase in rupees per litre.
Petrol Price Decrease
A negative change means the petrol price decreased compared with the previous saved record.
The archive may show the amount by which the petrol rate was reduced.
No Change
“No change” means the petrol price remained the same as the previous saved record.
The government may keep an existing rate unchanged for another pricing period.
Percentage Change
When available, the percentage change shows the size of the price movement relative to the previous petrol rate.
This can make it easier to compare smaller and larger changes across different dates.
Highest Petrol Price in Pakistan
The highest saved petrol price represents the maximum rate recorded in this archive.
You can use the year selector to identify the highest petrol price during a specific year, including 2026.
The highest historical record shown on this page only reflects the data successfully saved in the archive. It should not be treated as a complete official record unless all historical dates are available.
Lowest Petrol Price in Pakistan
The lowest saved petrol price represents the minimum rate recorded in the available archive.
Filtering by year can help readers compare the lowest petrol rate in 2026 with earlier periods.
A lower historical rate does not necessarily mean that fuel-related expenses were lower overall, because vehicle mileage, travel distance, taxes and other costs may also have changed.
Petrol Price Increase and Decrease Timeline
The dated records provide a timeline of petrol-price changes in Pakistan.
This timeline can help readers identify:
- Consecutive petrol-price increases
- Consecutive petrol-price reductions
- Long periods without a price change
- Large one-time increases
- Large one-time decreases
- Price movement during specific months
- Differences between the beginning and end of a year
This information can be useful for research, reporting and budgeting.
Monthly Petrol Price History in Pakistan
Readers may use the effective dates to compare petrol prices month by month.
For example, the archive can help identify:
- Petrol price in January 2026
- Petrol price in February 2026
- Petrol price in March 2026
- Petrol price in April 2026
- Petrol price in May 2026
- Petrol price in June 2026
- Petrol price in July 2026
- Petrol price in August 2026
- Petrol price in September 2026
- Petrol price in October 2026
- Petrol price in November 2026
- Petrol price in December 2026
A month may contain more than one effective price if the government announces multiple changes during that period.
Year-Wise Petrol Price History
The year filter allows readers to review petrol-price records for a selected year.
Year-wise comparison can help answer questions such as:
- How much did petrol cost in 2026?
- Was petrol more expensive than the previous year?
- What was the first petrol price of the year?
- What was the final petrol price of the year?
- How much did petrol increase during the year?
- How often did the price change?
The archive should be used together with official government notifications for detailed historical research.
How to Calculate a Petrol Price Change
You can calculate the difference between two petrol prices using this formula:
Price change = New petrol price − Previous petrol price
A positive result means the price increased.
A negative result means the price decreased.
You can calculate the percentage change using:
Percentage change = Price difference ÷ Previous price × 100
For example, when a petrol rate moves from Rs. 250 per litre to Rs. 260 per litre:
Price increase = Rs. 260 − Rs. 250 = Rs. 10 per litre
Percentage increase = Rs. 10 ÷ Rs. 250 × 100 = 4%
How Petrol Price Changes Affect Monthly Fuel Costs
A small change in the petrol price can affect monthly travel expenses, especially for people who drive long distances.
You can estimate the effect using:
Extra monthly cost = Petrol used each month × Price increase per litre
For example, if a vehicle uses 50 litres per month and petrol increases by Rs. 10 per litre:
50 litres × Rs. 10 = Rs. 500 additional monthly cost
Actual expenses depend on vehicle mileage, traffic conditions, air-conditioning use, travel distance and driving habits.
Why Petrol Prices Change in Pakistan
Petrol prices in Pakistan may be affected by several international and domestic factors.
International Crude-Oil Prices
Changes in global crude-oil and refined-petroleum prices can affect Pakistan’s fuel-import costs.
Pakistani Rupee Exchange Rate
Petroleum imports are generally paid for in foreign currency. Changes in the value of the Pakistani rupee can affect the local cost of imported fuel.
Import and Freight Costs
Shipping, insurance, port handling, transportation and other import expenses may influence the calculated petrol price.
Petroleum Levy and Taxes
Government levies, duties and taxes may form part of the final retail petrol price.
Refining and Distribution Costs
Refinery margins, oil-marketing-company margins and fuel-station dealer margins may also affect the retail price.
Government Pricing Decisions
The Government of Pakistan reviews available pricing calculations and announces the applicable retail petrol rate.
OGRA performs regulatory and advisory functions in Pakistan’s oil and gas sectors, while the final notified price should be verified through an official government announcement.
How Petrol Prices Affect Inflation
Changes in petrol prices may affect the cost of transportation, deliveries, services and consumer goods.
A petrol-price increase can contribute to higher expenses for:
- Daily commuting
- Ride-hailing services
- School transport
- Office transport
- Courier deliveries
- Food distribution
- Agricultural transport
- Construction materials
- Intercity travel
- Small businesses
The full impact can vary depending on diesel prices, transportation demand, supply conditions and other economic factors.
