Why Petrol Prices Are Increasing Again?
The latest expected rise is linked to several factors, including:
-
Higher international crude prices in the last two weeks
-
Stronger dollar rate, increasing import costs
-
Adjustment of petroleum levy and freight margins
-
Increased refinery premiums on imported fuel
This combination has pushed the estimated pump price upward for the mid-November review.
How This Increase May Affect Daily Life
A rise of Rs. 9.60 per litre directly impacts:
-
Transportation fares
-
Goods movement and supply chain costs
-
Everyday market prices (vegetables, fruits, essentials)
-
Ride-hailing services and delivery services
-
Household fuel budgets
The effects usually appear within 48–72 hours of the price revision.
Will Diesel Prices Increase Too?
While the confirmed rate will be announced later, analysts expect:
-
A slight upward trend in high-speed diesel,
-
Minor adjustments possible in light diesel oil depending on import parity calculations.
Diesel is important for agriculture and goods transport, so any increase will influence inflation levels.
