Factors Affecting Petrol Price in October
World Crude Oil Prices
Petrol prices in Pakistan track global crude oil trends. If international prices increase, then fuel rates locally also go up. A stable or falling crude rate may help keep the petrol price under control.
Dollar Exchange Rate
As long as Pakistan imports its petroleum products, the exchange rate between PKR and USD will always be a significant player. The weaker rupee against the dollar makes import costs rise, hence increasing the price of petrol.
Government Taxes & Levies
Such taxes as the Petroleum Development Levy (PDL) and General Sales Tax (GST) play a big role in determining final fuel prices. They can keep global oil prices steady, yet high taxes still push up the pump.

Impact of Petrol Price Increase/Decrease on Daily Life
- Transport Costs – Private bus, taxi and auto fares increase with an increase in petrol and diesel rates. Daily travellers are affected. A fall in fuel prices can make travel a bit cheaper.
- Food and essentials – As goods are mainly transported by road, higher fuel prices lead to more expensive vegetables, groceries and other essentials.
- Agriculture Sector – Diesel is used on a large scale in agricultural implements. An increase raises the cost of production; a decrease will benefit farmers.
- Home Budget – People give more money for transport and goods as they pay more for fuel, thus putting pressure on the monthly budget.
- Inflation – Regular increases in the price of fuel lead to overall inflation, while cuts may only give short-term relief to the consumer.
