Upcoming Change in Petrol Prices (December 2025)
According to government and industry insiders, the new petroleum prices for December 2025 are expected to bring a decrease of up to Rs 4.30 per liter in both petrol and diesel.
Expected Price Changes (December 2, 2025):
- Petrol: Expected to decrease by Rs 3.70 – Rs 4.30 per liter
- High-Speed Diesel (HSD): Expected to decrease by Rs 3.70 – Rs 4.28 per liter
The final prices will be officially announced by the Ministry of Finance after reviewing recommendations from the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA).
Reason Behind the Expected Price Drop
The projected decline in petrol and diesel prices comes amid a drop in global oil prices and a stable Pakistani rupee against the US dollar. International crude oil prices have fallen below $80 per barrel, providing room for local price adjustments.
Experts say that lower import costs and freight adjustments have created an opportunity for the government to pass on relief to consumers. However, the final decision will depend on exchange rate trends and OGRA’s import cost calculations for November.
When Will New Petrol Prices Take Effect?
The government typically revises petrol and diesel prices twice a month, based on OGRA’s biweekly summary.
- Next announcement: Sunday, December 1, 2025
- Effective date: Monday, December 2, 2025
Once approved by the Prime Minister, the new rates are applied immediately at all petrol pumps nationwide.
Impact on Consumers and Economy
A reduction in fuel prices will bring temporary relief to consumers already facing inflationary pressures. It will also:
- Lower transportation and logistics costs
- Reduce overall inflation rates
- Benefit agricultural and industrial sectors dependent on diesel usage
However, experts warn that global volatility and local taxation policies could reverse this trend in upcoming months if crude prices rebound.
