CNG Price in Pakistan
How Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and RLNG station pricing works in Pakistan across Sindh, Punjab, and KP.
No official OGRA rate published for CNG & RLNG
CNG is priced through the RLNG pipeline tariff on the SSGC and SNGPL networks, not through the OGRA petroleum products pricing formula that produces the petrol, diesel, kerosene and LPG rates on this site. We do not have a verified daily CNG feed, so no per-kg figure is shown here rather than publishing an unverified one. Check your local SSGC or SNGPL station for the current rate.
Frequently Asked Questions — CNG & RLNG Price in Pakistan
What is today's cng & rlng price in Pakistan?
CNG is priced through the RLNG pipeline tariff on the SSGC and SNGPL networks, not through the OGRA petroleum products pricing formula that produces the petrol, diesel, kerosene and LPG rates on this site. We do not have a verified daily CNG feed, so no per-kg figure is shown here rather than publishing an unverified one. Check your local SSGC or SNGPL station for the current rate.
How is the cng & rlng price determined in Pakistan?
The Petroleum Products Pricing Mechanism factors in the Platts Arab Gulf benchmark assessment, the Pakistani Rupee's exchange rate against the US Dollar, petroleum levy (PL), customs duty, and OMC/dealer margins.

Frequently asked questions
- What is today's cng & rlng price in Pakistan?
- CNG is priced through the RLNG pipeline tariff on the SSGC and SNGPL networks, not through the OGRA petroleum products pricing formula that produces the petrol, diesel, kerosene and LPG rates on this site. We do not have a verified daily CNG feed, so no per-kg figure is shown here rather than publishing an unverified one. Check your local SSGC or SNGPL station for the current rate.
- How is the cng & rlng price determined in Pakistan?
- OGRA prices fuel on an import parity basis: the Platts Arab Gulf benchmark in US dollars, converted at a seven-working-day average State Bank exchange rate, plus freight and incidentals, customs duty, the inland freight equalisation margin that keeps the price uniform nationwide, fixed oil marketing company and dealer margins, and finally the petroleum levy and climate support levy.
- Does the cng & rlng price differ between cities?
- No. One notified rate applies across Pakistan, because the inland freight equalisation margin averages transport cost nationwide. Beyond the 23 designated depots — parts of Balochistan, Azad Kashmir and the northern areas — oil marketing companies may add secondary freight, so a remote forecourt can charge slightly more.
- Where can I view official OGRA PDF notifications?
- OGRA publishes every price notification on ogra.org.pk. Each rate on this site is parsed from one of those PDFs and carries OGRA's own document id, so any figure can be traced back to its source; the methodology page explains how each one is checked before publication.
CNG Price in Pakistan by Region
Pakistan's CNG stations are billed under an RLNG (Regasified Liquefied Natural Gas) pricing formula set by OGRA, split into two pricing zones. Sindh (Karachi, Hyderabad, Sukkur) runs on Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) network pricing. Region-I — Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar, Gujranwala, Sialkot) — runs on Sui Northern Gas Pipelines (SNGPL) network pricing. Rates in the two zones can differ, and CNG price per kg is generally higher than petrol price per liter on an energy-equivalent basis once RLNG diversion costs are added.
Why is CNG closed on certain days in Pakistan?
CNG stations in several cities follow a weekly closure schedule (commonly one or two days per week) set by the gas utility to divert supply to domestic and industrial consumers during peak winter demand. Closure days and hours vary by city and season — check with your local SSGC/SNGPL station or the methodology page for how OGRA-notified rates are sourced.
CNG price vs LPG price vs petrol price
CNG and LPG are priced and regulated differently in Pakistan — CNG follows the RLNG pipeline tariff set on the SSGC and SNGPL networks, while LPG cylinder price follows the OGRA petroleum products pricing formula. That is why this page carries no daily per-kg CNG figure while the LPG page does. Compare against petrol price in Pakistan and diesel price in Pakistan to decide which fuel is most cost-effective for your vehicle.
