ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan caretaker government has hiked petrol price by Rs 14.91 per litre and high-speed diesel (HSD) price by Rs 18.44 per litre, Dawn reported.
The petrol price is now at Rs 305.36 per litre and HSD at Rs 311.84 per litre, the Ministry of Finance said in a post on X (formerly Twitter) after midnight.
No revision was specified in the rates of kerosene or light diesel oil.
The price increase comes on the heels of an already massive hike on August 15 when the interim government raised fuel prices by up to Rs 20 per litre. That jump in petroleum prices had come after similar hikes by the previous government on August 1, according to Dawn.
