In a major relief for consumers, the federal government has announced a significant reduction in petroleum product prices across Pakistan. The latest cut comes at a time when inflation, transport costs, and fuel price volatility continue to impact households and businesses nationwide.

According to an official notification issued from the Prime Minister’s Office, petrol and high-speed diesel prices have been reduced by Rs 22.22 per litre, offering immediate relief to millions of motorists, transport operators, and daily commuters.

This development is being seen as a key step toward easing inflationary pressure and stabilizing transportation expenses across the country.

Updated Petrol and Diesel Prices in Pakistan

Here is a clear breakdown of the revised fuel prices:

Fuel Type	Old Price (Rs per litre)	New Price (Rs per litre)	Reduction
Petrol	403.78	381.56	22.22
Diesel	402.78	380.56	22.22

The uniform reduction across both major petroleum products is expected to bring noticeable relief in fuel consumption costs, especially for daily commuters and logistics businesses.

Government’s Statement on Fuel Price Cut

The Prime Minister’s Office stated that providing economic relief to the public remains a top priority. It was highlighted that the government had assured citizens that any available fiscal space would be used to reduce financial pressure on households.

Officials also emphasized that recent fuel price adjustments are part of a broader strategy to stabilize energy markets in Pakistan while protecting consumers from global oil price fluctuations.

Subsidy Support for Key Sectors

To further cushion the impact of fuel price volatility, subsidies have been extended to several important sectors, including:

Public transport operators
Goods transport carriers
Motorcycle users
Rickshaw drivers

These measures aim to control rising transport fares and prevent a ripple effect on essential goods and services.

Impact on Inflation and Transport Costs

Experts believe that this fuel price reduction will directly impact inflation trends in the coming weeks. Lower petrol and diesel prices typically reduce freight charges, which then affect food prices, groceries, and the overall cost of living.

Key expected outcomes include:

• Reduced daily commuting expenses
• Lower logistics and freight costs
• Slight easing in overall inflation pressure
• Improved transport sector stability
