Petrol and High-Speed Diesel (HSD) Prices Set to Change in Pakistan Tomorrow. The interim government is expected to announce new prices for petrol and high-speed diesel (HSD) in Pakistan for the upcoming fortnight.
Reports indicate that the new petrol prices will remain the same or see a marginal drop ranging from 90 to 98 paisas. However, diesel prices may experience a surge of about Rs1 to Rs1.30 per litre.
The official notification for the new petrol and diesel prices is expected tonight, and the new rates will take effect from Monday, January 1st, 2024.
Despite recent stability in crude oil prices and the exchange rate between the US dollar (USD) and the Pakistani rupee (PKR), inflation-hit Pakistanis may not witness a double-digit reduction in petrol prices compared to previous nights. As of late December, petrol is being sold at Rs267.34 per litre, while High-Speed Diesel is available at Rs276.21.
