Main Factors Behind Diesel Pricing

International Oil Market
Pakistan does not produce enough diesel locally so we import most of diesel from other countries When global crude oil prices go up or down, our diesel prices follow the same trend. It is like a domino effect what happens in international markets directly impacts what Pakistani consumers pay.
Currency Exchange Rate
many people do not realize that we pay for diesel imports in US dollars not in Pakistani rupees So when the rupee get weaker against the dollar importing diesel become more expensive. This extra cost get passed on to consumer making fuel more costly even if international oil price stay the same.
Government Tax and Duties
The government add various tax to diesel which including the Petroleum Levy and General Sales Tax These taxes make up significant portion of the final price you see at fuel stations. When the government changes these tax rates, prices adjust accordingly.
Transportation and Processing Costs
Getting diesel from international markets to your local fuel station is not cheap. There are cost for shipping, refining the fuel at local refineries, and distributing it across the country. All these expenses add up and influence the final price.
