Petrol price raised by Rs1.71 per litre starting from August 1

The government has increased the petrol price by Rs1.71 per litre starting August 1.

According to the premier’s aide on political communication, Shahbaz Gill, the decision was made as per the recommendation of the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA). 

He added that it was decided that the rate of high-speed diesel be kept constant, as a hike in this commodity impacts the “common man and farmers more”.

Therefore, diesel will continue to be priced at Rs117.53 per litre.
