ISLAMABAD: The government has issued a notification revising the prices of petroleum products for the next three days, reducing the price of petrol while increasing the rate of high-speed diesel.

According to the notification, the price of petrol has been reduced by Rs0.66 per litre, bringing its new rate to Rs398.30 per litre. Meanwhile, the price of diesel has been increased by Rs0.52 per litre, raising its new rate to Rs396.24 per litre.

The Petroleum Division said the revised prices would remain effective from October 10 to October 12.

The latest adjustment provides a slight reduction in petrol prices, offering limited relief to motorists and households that rely on petrol-powered vehicles for daily transportation. However, the increase in diesel prices could add to operating expenses for transporters, commercial vehicle operators and businesses dependent on diesel-powered machinery.
