ISLAMABAD: The price of petrol has been increased by Rs 1.00 per litre to Rs 253.63, effective from June 1, 2025, as announced by the Finance Division on Saturday. However, the rate for high-speed diesel (HSD) will remain stable at Rs 254.64 per litre for the next two weeks.
According to a late-night statement from the Finance Division, this adjustment follows the advice of the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) and relevant government bodies. While the ex-refinery price of petrol is increased from Rs 151.80 to Rs 154.55 per litre, the government mitigated the full impact on consumers by significantly reducing the Inland Freight Equalization Margin (IFEM) from Rs 6.30 to Rs 4.55 per litre. The petroleum levy (PL) on both petrol (Rs 78.02 per litre) and HSD (Rs 77 per litre) remains unchanged. Additionally, the price of kerosene oil has seen a slight increase from Rs 250.14 to Rs 251.13 per litre.
