The authority forwarded a summary to the Petroleum Division in which it suggested increasing the price of petrol by Rs8.50 per litre from for next 15 days.

It also recommended an increase of Rs5.5 per litre in the price of high-speed diesel.

The final decision in this regard will be taken by the Ministry of Finance after consultation with Prime Minister Imran Khan.
