The federal government on Thursday revised the levy structure on petroleum products, increasing the Climate Support Levy on petrol and high-speed diesel (HSD) while reducing the Petroleum Levy by the same amount, leaving fuel prices unchanged.
According to a notification issued by the Ministry of Energy, the Climate Support Levy on both petrol and HSD has been increased by Rs2.50 per litre to Rs5.00 per litre.
To offset the increase, the government reduced the Petroleum Levy on petrol by Rs2.50 per litre to Rs64.14 per litre, while the levy on high-speed diesel was lowered by the same amount to Rs77.04 per litre.
The revised levy structure took effect on July 2 and will remain in force until further orders, with the adjustment having no impact on retail fuel prices.
