Islamabad: Pakistan ministry of finance on Sunday approved an increase in petrol price by Rs1.73 per litre, while price-cuts have been announced in other petroleum products from 24th of September (Monday) under the weekly revision in POL prices.
The prices of compressed natural gas (CNG) will also rise after the increase in petrol rate because of a set mechanism under which CNG price should be equal to 60% of petrol price.
