IslamabadRs114 of every litre of petrol goes to the state.

Pakistan cut petrol Rs2.71 to Rs392.66 a litre for 14 October, and diesel just Rs0.03.

Petrol peaked at Rs458.41 on 3 April after the US-Iran war began on 28 February, and diesel at Rs520.35.

The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority reprices fuel daily, and austerity measures halve official-vehicle fuel for 3 months.
