Pakistan's gas regulator announced fresh pricing rules for the next budget year. The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority made these changes official on Sunday. New gas rates will start on the first day of July. The federal government gave approval after companies shared their money needs. Two major gas firms provided details about their required earnings.
Several business groups will face different costs under the new system. Bulk buyers will see rate changes along with major factories that process materials. Power companies will also pay updated amounts for their gas supplies. Home users will spend more money each month through higher fixed fees. Both regular and special household categories will face these increased monthly costs.
Many other customer types will keep paying the same amounts as before. Home users under the step pricing system will see no changes. Small businesses like bread shops will maintain their current rates. Regular commercial buildings will also keep existing prices. Factory owners using gas for their own power needs face no increases.
Gas stations that sell compressed natural gas will continue with old pricing. Cement makers will keep their current rate structure without any adjustments. Fertilizer companies will also maintain their existing gas costs. The regulator designed these changes to balance different user needs. Officials hope the new pricing will help gas companies meet their financial goals.
