Pakistan is expected to face another increase in petroleum prices from February 1, as the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) has finalized its price adjustment summary and forwarded it to the Petroleum Division. Kerosene oil prices are also expected to go up by Rs. The expected increase, particularly in diesel prices, comes at a time when transportation and logistics heavily rely on diesel, making it a sensitive adjustment for the broader economy. Analysts warn that a rise in diesel prices could push up transport fares, freight charges, and food prices, adding further pressure on inflation. The government is expected to issue the official notification tomorrow, confirming the revised petroleum prices ahead of their implementation on February 1.
