The notification, signed by Azhar Fareed Khan, Executive Director (Finance-III), outlines the revised pricing structure for petroleum products refined in Pakistan and imported. The new rate includes all applicable levies, margins, and taxes, with the prescribed price now standing at Rs 357.04 per litre before the addition of general sales tax.
The revised pricing will apply to 23 locations/depots of Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) and covers primary freight only. Special provisions remain in place for secondary freight in designated areas including Balochistan, Azad Kashmir, and Northern Areas.
Apparently, this price adjustment comes as part of the government’s ongoing efforts to stabilize fuel costs and provide relief to consumers amid fluctuating global energy markets.
