ISLAMABAD: As of March 10, 2026, petrol prices in Pakistan have reached a record high of Rs. 321.17 per litre, following a sharp increase influenced by rising global market tensions.

The hike marks one of the largest surges in recent months, impacting both consumers and businesses across the country.

Experts warn that further volatility may be expected, with speculation suggesting an additional rise of up to Rs. 40 per litre next week.

However, the official petrol rate will only be confirmed through the Ministry of Finance, Pakistan, with the next official notification expected on March 15, 2026.

Citizens are advised to stay updated with official announcements before making fuel-related purchases, as the rising prices continue to put pressure on household and transport budgets.
