OGRA has recommended the federal government to increase the prices of petrol and diesel by more than Rs 7 and Rs 5 per liter respectively with effect from June 1st.

OGRA has forwarded a summary of the recommended hike in prices of petrol to Rs7.10 and diesel by Rs5.20 to the petroleum ministry for approval.

Earlier, on May 1, government bumped up the prices of petroleum products following the rejection of the state oil and gas regulatory authority’s proposal to make an even bigger upward revision.

Petrol up Rs 1.70 to Rs 87.70 per liter.
Diesel up Rs 2.31 to Rs 98.76 a liter.

Hello! My name is Farhan Abro, and I'm based here in Islamabad. My journey in Pakistan's digital media really kicked off when I founded INCPak back in 2012. We built it from the ground up, driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, to be a trusted voice for independent journalism. But while media is a big part of who I am, I'm also shaped by a fascinating mix of other passions. I'm deeply into automotive, which gives me a technical edge, but I also find my artistic expression through landscape photography and music. And I'm always diving into the exciting world of Artificial Intelligence. Bringing all these different worlds together the technical, the creative, the journalistic, and the entrepreneurial—it really colors how I see things and approach every project. It gives me a distinct perspective that I try to bring to everything I share
