May 23, 2026 (MLN): The government has reduced the price of petrol by Rs6 per litre and that of high-speed diesel (HSD) by Rs6.80 on Friday, according to a notification issued by the Petroleum Division.

Petrol, which previously stood at Rs409.78 per litre, will now be available at Rs403.78, while HSD has been brought down from Rs409.58 to Rs402.78 per litre.

The price reductions come as welcome news for the transport sector, daily commuters, and businesses that rely heavily on fuel for their operations.

The decrease reflects fluctuations in global oil prices and the government's efforts to ease the financial burden on citizens.
