The government announced no change in petrol and high-speed diesel (HSD) prices for July 26 and 27, keeping them at Rs335.18 and Rs383.46 per litre. This follows increases of Rs3.66 for petrol and Rs4.80 for HSD effective July 25. Internationally, crude oil futures dropped over 4% on Friday amid reports of US-Iran peace talks, though they remained on track for weekly gains due to ongoing Middle East tensions. Stable domestic fuel prices could offer a brief respite from inflationary pressures, potentially influencing local gold demand and the USD/PKR rate.
