The government periodically reviews fuel prices to reflect developments in global oil markets and their impact on domestic petroleum costs.
OGRA has also started publishing daily petroleum prices on its website as part of efforts to improve transparency and ensure international oil price movements are reflected more quickly in domestic rates.
Petroleum Minister Ali Pervaiz Malik said the daily pricing mechanism is based on a seven-day average of international market prices, in line with international practice.
The latest increase is expected to raise transportation and other costs for consumers and businesses across the country.
