Pakistan Expected To Raise Diesel By Rs9.60 From Nov. 16, With Petrol Seen Slightly Lower

Final rates hinge on OGRA’s Nov. 15 submission followed by the prime minister’s sign-off.

Overview

  • Industry projections indicate high-speed diesel could climb about Rs9.60 per litre to roughly Rs288.04 effective around Nov. 16.
  • Petrol is widely forecast to dip by about Rs2 to near Rs263.5 per litre, though one outlet reports a possible Rs2 increase.
  • Kerosene and light diesel oil are projected to rise by approximately Rs8.82 and Rs7.15 per litre, respectively.
  • OGRA will send its working paper to the Petroleum Division on Nov. 15 before a summary goes to the prime minister, with new prices notified by the Finance Ministry for a 15‑day period.
  • Calculations reflect Platts window data, import premiums and sizable levies (about Rs80.52/litre on petrol and Rs79.51 on HSD), and dealers report diesel supply tightness as some private firms halt deliveries.
