A petition challenging a Rs200 per litre hike in high-octane fuel prices has been filed in Lahore High Court. The application names Federal Government of Pakistan and OGRA as respondents. It argues that the price increase from Rs100 to Rs300 per litre for luxury vehicles’ fuel is unjustified, not aligned with international market trends, and warns of potential inflation. The petitioner seeks details on the petroleum pricing formula and taxes, urging the government to halt further arbitrary increases in fuel prices.
