The Government of Pakistan has officially announced the updated petrol and diesel prices for the first half of June 2025. As per the notification from the Ministry of Finance, the fuel prices will remain unchanged for the next 15 days. This decision comes despite the ongoing decline in global crude oil prices.

Why Petrol Prices Remain Unchanged
While international oil prices are currently falling — with Brent crude trading at approximately $64.62 per barrel — Pakistan’s domestic fuel pricing is influenced by several other economic factors:
- Petroleum Levy: The government is charging a levy of Rs78 per litre on petrol.
- General Sales Tax (GST): A new GST between 3% to 5% is expected to be introduced in the federal budget for 2025–26.
- IMF Commitments: To meet revenue targets set by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the government aims to increase its petroleum levy collection from Rs1,117 billion to Rs1,311 billion in the next fiscal year.
These internal revenue goals are keeping fuel prices steady despite a drop in international crude rates.
Impact on Consumers
Although prices have not increased this time, the current fuel rates are still significantly high for most households and businesses. The unchanged petrol price of Rs253.63 per litre continues to strain:
- Daily commuting costs for private vehicle owners
- Fare rates for public transportation
- Logistics and supply chain operations
- Overall consumer inflation in essential goods and services
As fuel remains a key input across various sectors, even price stability does not necessarily translate into relief for the average consumer.

What to Expect After the Budget
The government has signaled potential fuel price adjustments following the 2025–26 federal budget announcement in June. Starting from July 1, 2025, new policies regarding energy pricing, including electricity, gas, and petroleum, may come into effect. If implemented, these changes could lead to a fresh hike in petrol prices.
Conclusion
The petrol price in Pakistan for June 2025 remains unchanged at Rs253.63 per litre. While this provides short-term stability, upcoming economic reforms and the federal budget may lead to new price increases. Consumers are advised to monitor fuel policy developments closely and plan their expenses accordingly. Stay tuned with Bloom Pakistan
