Customs duty is counted with the government, not with the cost of the fuel: the groups follow who gets the money. Every line as OGRA prints it
OGRA notifies one price for the whole country. The inland freight equalisation margin, Rs 7.93 a litre on petrol today, evens out the cost of trucking it between cities.
Pakistan’s Rs 100 petrol relief, explainedA Rs 100-a-litre rebate for motorcycles, rickshaws and cars up to 800cc, capped monthly. It does not change OGRA’s notified price — Rs 375.82 for petrol on 12 September 2026 — and it leaves the petroleum levy whole. Who qualifies, how to register, and who pays.
The price here, and the price at the pumpOGRA’s notified price is the legal maximum, the dealer’s margin already inside the build-up, so a pump charging more than the petrol or diesel figure here is overcharging.
The plan to stop setting the petrol pricePakistan set a tentative June 2027 target to deregulate petrol prices and let oil companies set the pump rate, with diesel to follow — what it would change for OGRA’s build-up.
