When Is the Next Petrol Price Revision?
Historically, Pakistan revised petrol prices on the 1st and 16th of each month. However, from March 2026 onwards — following the Strait of Hormuz crisis — the government shifted to weekly price reviews every Friday to allow faster response to international market changes.
The next expected revision is June 6, 2026. Whether prices go up or down depends on:
- International crude oil prices (Brent crude benchmark)
- PKR/USD exchange rate notified by the State Bank of Pakistan
- Petroleum levy adjustment by the federal government
- OGRA’s ex-refinery price recommendation
How OGRA Sets Petrol Prices — The Formula Explained
Pakistan’s fuel prices follow the Import Parity Price (IPP) formula. OGRA calculates the final pump price using these components:
| Component | Approx. Rs/Litre | % of Price |
|---|---|---|
| International Product Cost (MS-92) | Rs 210–220 | ~58% |
| Port & Import Charges | Rs 8–12 | ~3% |
| Inland Freight Equalisation (IFEM) | ~Rs 20 | ~5% |
| OMC Margin | Rs 7–9 | ~2% |
| Dealer Commission | Rs 7.50 | ~2% |
| Petroleum Levy | Rs 80.61 | ~21% |
| Sales Tax | Rs 0 (waived) | 0% |
The petroleum levy of Rs 80.61/litre is the government’s primary revenue tool from fuel. It was slashed from Rs 160.61/litre on April 4, 2026 to provide public relief after the historic Rs 458/litre peak. This single cut reduced the pump price by over Rs 80/litre overnight.

Pakistan vs Neighbouring Countries — Petrol Price Comparison
| Country | Price (Local Currency/L) | Price (USD/L) |
|---|---|---|
| Pakistan | Rs 381.78 | $0.90 |
| India (Delhi) | ₹102.12 | $1.22 |
| Bangladesh | Tk 108/L (approx) | $1.03 |
| Sri Lanka | LKR 261 | $1.26 |
While Pakistan’s nominal price appears low in USD terms, the country ranks worst in South Asia for fuel affordability relative to per capita income (source: ProPakistani, April 2026). Pakistan’s per capita income of ~$1,500 means fuel costs take a much higher share of earnings than in India (~$2,600) or Sri Lanka (~$4,500).

Why Did Petrol Price Spike in March–April 2026?
The unprecedented petrol price crisis of 2026 was triggered by a series of geopolitical events:
- February 28, 2026: US-Israel military strikes on Iran. Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz — through which 20% of the world’s oil transits.
- March 7, 2026: Brent crude surges from $75 to over $130/barrel. OGRA hikes petrol by Rs 55 to Rs 321.17/litre.
- April 3, 2026: Petrol hits an all-time high of Rs 458.41/litre — the largest single-day hike in Pakistan’s history (+Rs 137.24).
- April 11, 2026: Government slashes petroleum levy from Rs 160.61 to Rs 80 for relief, bringing prices to Rs 366.58/litre.
- May 30, 2026: Further reduction to Rs 381.78 as global crude stabilizes.

When is the next petrol price revision in Pakistan?

Why is the petroleum levy so high in Pakistan?
The petroleum levy is the federal government’s single largest source of non-tax revenue. At Rs 80.61/litre (reduced from Rs 160.61 in April 2026), it contributes roughly 21% of the pump price. It was reduced to provide relief during the 2026 Strait of Hormuz crisis.
Is petrol price the same across all cities in Pakistan?
Yes. Unlike India where state-level taxes create city-by-city differences, Pakistan has a uniform national petrol price set by OGRA and applicable at all OMC stations across the country.
What was the highest petrol price in Pakistan history?
The all-time high was Rs 458.41 per litre recorded on April 3, 2026, following the Iran-related global oil shock. This was the largest single-day increase in Pakistan’s history at +Rs 137.24/litre.
How much does it cost to fill a Suzuki Alto per month?
A Suzuki Alto with a 28-litre tank costs about Rs 10,690 to fill completely (28 × Rs 381.78). For a commuter driving 50 km/day at 20 km/litre, monthly petrol cost = (50 ÷ 20) × Rs 381.78 × 26 days = approximately Rs 24,815/month.
Does OGRA reduce petrol price when oil falls globally?
Yes, but the government may maintain higher petroleum levy to collect more revenue when crude falls, which can partially offset the reduction. The consumer benefits when both crude falls AND the levy stays fixed or is reduced. See our petrol price history article for historical patterns.
