Will petrol cross Rs340 per litre in Pakistan before 31 October 2026?

Petrol prices in Pakistan are set by OGRA using a formula tied to international oil prices and the rupee-dollar exchange rate, with the government adjusting the retail price roughly every two weeks. Both global crude prices and currency movements have been volatile, so whether the ex-depot price climbs past the Rs340 threshold before the end of October depends on factors outside Pakistan's control as much as domestic policy. Resolves: 31 October 2026 • Source: OGRA price notification, as reported by Business Recorder Rule: Resolves YES if any OGRA notification with an effective date from 14 August to 31 October 2026 inclusive sets the ex-depot price of petrol (motor gasoline) above Rs340.00 per litre. Diesel, kerosene, and retail pump prices that differ from the ex-depot notification do not count.
