The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) has prepared a summary, seeking an increase in petrol prices from August 16.
According to sources privy to the decision, the regulator has recommended an increase in petrol price by 50 paisas per litre.
The authority has suggested an increase of Rs2.50 per litre in the price of high-speed diesel, Rs1 in the price of kerosene oil and Rs1 in light diesel.
Any final decision in the hike in petrol prices would be made by the finance ministry after approval from Prime Minister Imran Khan.
According to a local media outlet, the summary has been prepared by keeping the current petroleum levy in view.
Earlier on July 30, the government had raised the price of petrol by Rs1.71 per litre.
