Petrol price up by Rs4.10, HSD’s by Rs6.41
The Petroleum Division has announced an increase in domestic fuel prices for September 16 following a surge in global refined product costs driven by mounting geopolitical tensions. According to the official notification, the ex-depot price of petrol rises by Rs4.10 to Rs384.34 per litre (up from Rs 380.24), while High-Speed Diesel (HSD) climbs by Rs6.41 to reach Rs415.83 per litre. The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) calculated the updated rates using a seven-working-day rolling average of the daily Platts Arab Gulf Means Price. Levies and profit margins remain largely steady across both products. The change is recorded in ex-refinery price of both petroleum products.
