ISLAMABAD: The All Pakistan Petrol Pump Owners Association (APPPOA) and Pakistan Petroleum Dealers Association (PPDA) on Tuesday demanded that the government immediately increase their commission.
They warned that if their commission was not raised in proportion to recent price hikes, they would be forced to shut down fuel outlets nationwide.
The associations demanded a margin revision to eight per cent of the invoice price, arguing that the current fixed profit of Rs8 per litre was insufficient to cover rising operational costs.
Furthermore, they cautioned that existing margins made it financially impossible to continue accepting bank credit or corporate fuel cards.
