KARACHI: Prices of petroleum products are expected to decline in Pakistan in the next price review on April 30 owing to an international downward trend in oil prices.

On April 30, the federal government plans to revise the prices for petroleum products, including kerosene oil, high-speed diesel, light-speed diesel, and gasoline. The expectation of a drop in gas prices is linked to the global oil prices’ declining trend.

According to reports, the price of gasoline dropped by $1.86 per barrel to settle at $107.16 per barrel, while the price of diesel fell by $4.3 on the global market as it is not traded at $104.76 per barrel.
