Factors Affecting Petrol Prices in Pakistan

The petrol price Pakistan experiences is influenced by several key international and domestic factors:

  • International Crude Oil Prices: Global supply and demand significantly impact the base cost.
  • USD/PKR Exchange Rate: As oil is imported, fluctuations in the exchange rate directly affect the landing cost.
  • Government Taxes & Levies: Petroleum Levy (PL) and General Sales Tax (GST) form a substantial part of the final price.
  • Refining & Marketing Costs: Margins for Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) and distribution expenses are included.
Note on IFEM Adjustment: The Inland Freight Equalization Margin (IFEM) has been increased - now Rs 8.89 per litre for petrol (from Rs 6.96) and Rs 6.04 per litre for HSD (from Rs 2.09). Petroleum levy remains unchanged at Rs 75.52 per litre for petrol and Rs 74.51 per litre for HSD.

Historical Petrol Price Trends

Fuel rates in Pakistan have seen significant volatility. For instance, the highest petrol price recorded was PKR 331.38 per liter on September 16, 2023. Keeping track of these trends helps understand the market dynamics affecting the current petrol price in Pakistan.

Fuel Quality Standards (Euro V)

Pakistan has adopted Euro V emission standards for petrol and diesel. This ensures higher quality fuel with significantly lower sulphur content compared to previous standards. Adhering to Euro V norms benefits modern vehicle engines and contributes to reducing air pollution across Pakistan.
