It was initially being reported that coalition government planned to increase the Petrol Price in Pakistan by Rs. 4.55 per litre, while they planned to hike the price of High-Speed Diesel (HSD) by Rs. 16.89 per litre. However, these prices were worked out without the imposition of petroleum levy (PL) and General Sales Tax (GST).

If the Federal Government adds petroleum levy of Rs. 10 per litre and 17% GST, the Petrol Price will would have risen around Rs. 290 per litre, making life hell for the poor and middle-class of the country with massive inflation.

It is pertinent to mention that Petrol Prices in Pakistan have been increased by over Rs. 100 per litre ever since the coalition government came to power after ousting Imran Khan as Prime Minister through a no-confidence motion. The incumbent government has so far blamed the previous PTI government for all the challenges, while inflation has been on the rise since they came to power.
