Islamabad: The federal government is likely to increase petroleum prices for the next fortnight beginning July 16, which is anticipated to further drive up inflation, sources revealed on Monday.
Petrol prices are expected to rise by Rs7.67 per litre, high-speed diesel (HSD) by Rs3.72 per litre, and kerosene oil by Rs2.39 per litre.
If implemented, the proposed increase would raise petrol prices from Rs 265.61 to Rs 273.28 per litre. High-speed diesel would see an increase from Rs 277.45 to Rs 281.17 per litre, and kerosene oil would go up by Rs 2.39 per litre.
