The federal government on Saturday announced a reduction in the prices of petroleum products, effective immediately.
The new pricing structure reflects modest decreases across several fuel types, providing some relief amidst the rising cost of living.
The price of petrol has been reduced by Rs 1.86 per litre, bringing it down to Rs 259.10 per litre. Similarly, the cost of high-speed diesel has been slashed by Rs 3.32 per litre, now priced at Rs 262.75 per litre.
Additionally, kerosene oil has seen a decrease, with the new rate set at Rs 169.62 per litre. Light diesel oil (LDO) also experienced a reduction of Rs 2.97 per litre, adjusting its price to Rs 154.05 per litre.
