|---|---|---|
| Petrol | Rs. 391.30 | +Rs. 2.02 |
| High-Speed Diesel (HSD) | Rs. 408.53 | -Rs. 3.59 |

Petrol Price in Pakistan Today
The petrol price in Pakistan on 26 September 2026 is Rs. 391.30 per litre.
The latest increase comes after several changes in petroleum prices during September. Petrol was priced at Rs. 389.28 per litre immediately before the latest revision.
For motorists, the increase means that filling a 40-litre fuel tank now costs approximately Rs. 15,652, before any differences that may arise from station-level practices.
Diesel Price in Pakistan Today
The current high-speed diesel price is Rs. 408.53 per litre.
Unlike petrol, diesel has become cheaper under the latest revision, with a reduction of Rs. 3.59 per litre. Diesel prices are particularly important for freight transport, buses, agricultural machinery, generators and other commercial activities because of the widespread use of HSD in these sectors.
Why Did Petrol and Diesel Prices Change?
Pakistan has been using a more frequent fuel-pricing mechanism amid volatility in international oil markets. Under the current framework, petroleum prices are linked to international market movements, with the daily mechanism using a seven-day average of international prices.
Global oil-market uncertainty has remained an important factor behind recent price movements. Reports have also highlighted fluctuations in crude prices and concerns surrounding oil supplies and shipping through the region.
This means local petrol and diesel rates can change relatively quickly when international petroleum prices move significantly.
Petrol Price Trend in September 2026
Fuel prices have moved considerably during September. Petrol, for example, was Rs. 342.79 per litre on September 1 and reached Rs. 391.30 per litre on September 26. HSD moved from Rs. 370.41 to Rs. 408.53 per litre over the same period.
The latest revision therefore presents a mixed picture: petrol has increased, while diesel has decreased.
For consumers, the direction of the next adjustment will depend largely on international oil prices, exchange-rate movements, applicable taxes and the government's pricing mechanism.
How Much Does a Full Tank Cost?
For a quick estimate at the current rates:
- 20 litres petrol: Rs. 7,826
- 40 litres petrol: Rs. 15,652
- 50 litres petrol: Rs. 19,565
- 20 litres diesel: Rs. 8,170.60
- 40 litres diesel: Rs. 16,341.20
- 50 litres diesel: Rs. 20,426.50
These calculations use the notified per-litre rates and are intended as simple estimates.
What the New Rates Mean for Consumers
The petrol increase will directly affect people who depend on motorcycles, cars, rickshaws and other petrol-powered vehicles. Even a small per-litre change can add up for people who travel long distances every day.
The reduction in diesel prices provides some relief to diesel users, particularly transport and commercial operators. However, the overall cost of transportation also depends on other expenses such as maintenance, wages, tolls and operating costs.
Since petroleum prices are being reviewed more frequently, consumers may continue to see changes at shorter intervals than under the previous fortnightly system.
