Once again people are shocked to see yet another increase in prices of Petrol (Gasoline), Diesel and Kerosene. This increase is different then all the previous increments: it’s the highest ever increase in the history of Pakistan.
I wonder how I am going to pay for my car’s fuel as the prices are now so high. May be I will need to buy a bicycle : )
Yesterday, the price of Petrol (Gasoline) was increased to 86.66 Rupees [approximately $1.21 per Liter]. The previous rate was 75.69 Rupees [approximately $1.06 per Liter].
So the increase in the price of Petrol (Gasoline) is 10 Rupees and 97 paisa [approximately +$0.15 per Liter].
On the other hand, the price of Diesel was increased to 64.63 Rupees [approximately $0.91 per Liter]. Previous, Diesel was sold at a rate 55.14 Rupees [approximately $0.78 per Liter].
The increase in the price of Diesel is 9.49 Rupees [approximately +$0.13 per Liter].
Price of Kerosene is also increased to 58.37 Rupees [approximately $0.82 per Liter]. The previous rate was 50.17 Rupees [approximately $0.7 per Liter].
So the increase in the price of Kerosene is 8.20 Rupees [approximately +$0.11 per Liter].
