بنگلہ دیش میں عالمی تیل کی قیمتوں میں اضافے کے باعث ایندھن 17 فیصد تک مہنگا

Bangladesh increased fuel prices by up to 17.4% effective Monday, with diesel rising 17.4% to 135 taka/litre. This move aims to curb losses from soaring global oil prices and increased freight costs due to regional instability. The Energy Ministry cited international fuel prices more than doubling and significant freight charge hikes since March 2026. This development signals persistent global inflationary pressures and geopolitical risks, potentially supporting crude oil prices and safe-haven assets like gold, while adding pressure on import-dependent economies like Pakistan, impacting USD/PKR.
