In May 2024, prices of petrol, diesel, and other petroleum products are anticipated to decrease, bringing some relief to people affected by inflation. This could mark the first price reduction in recent months and is eagerly awaited by Pakistanis.
The expected drop in petrol prices is linked to global oil price changes, with international fuel rates decreasing by $4.3 and $1.86 per barrel. This decrease is expected to translate to a domestic price reduction of Rs7.85 and Rs3.75 for petrol and diesel, respectively.
