The Government of Pakistan has introduced a Rs. 100 per litre petrol relief scheme to provide targeted support to eligible vehicle owners facing higher fuel costs. The programme covers motorcycles, three-wheelers and small cars with engines of up to 800cc, subject to the scheme’s eligibility and monthly fuel limits.
Under the scheme, eligible motorcycle and three-wheeler users can receive Rs. 100 relief on up to 20 litres of petrol per month. Eligible cars with engines up to 800cc can receive the same Rs. 100 per litre relief on up to 30 litres per month.
The registration system is digital and uses vehicle and identity information for verification. Registration is available nationwide through SMS, while fuel-token redemption was introduced in phases, beginning in Islamabad before expanding across Pakistan, including AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan.
What Is the Rs. 100 Petrol Relief Scheme?
The Fuel Relief Scheme 2026 is a government assistance programme designed to reduce the impact of increased petrol prices on selected vehicle users.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced the relief package amid higher international oil prices. The scheme specifically targets people using motorcycles, rickshaws, Qingqi rickshaws, other eligible two- and three-wheelers, and cars with engines up to 800cc.
Rather than providing a general discount to every petrol consumer, the programme uses a defined monthly quota. Eligible users receive the relief through a fuel-token system, with the discount applied when the token is verified at an eligible petrol station.
How Much Petrol Relief Can You Get?
The monthly benefit depends on the vehicle category.
| Eligible Vehicle | Monthly Petrol Limit | Relief Per Litre | Maximum Monthly Relief |
|---|---|---|---|
| Motorcycle | 20 litres | Rs. 100 | Rs. 2,000 |
| Rickshaw | 20 litres | Rs. 100 | Rs. 2,000 |
| Qingqi | 20 litres | Rs. 100 | Rs. 2,000 |
| Eligible 2/3-wheelers | 20 litres | Rs. 100 | Rs. 2,000 |
| Car up to 800cc | 30 litres | Rs. 100 | Rs. 3,000 |
The Ministry of IT and Telecommunication states that two- and three-wheelers receive their monthly 20-litre entitlement through 5-litre tokens, while eligible cars up to 800cc receive 30 litres through 10-litre tokens.
Who Is Eligible for the Petrol Relief Scheme?
The programme is intended for eligible owners or users of the following vehicle categories:
- Motorcycles
- Rickshaws
- Qingqi rickshaws
- Eligible two-wheelers
- Eligible three-wheelers
- Cars with engines up to 800cc
- Other vehicle categories covered by the government’s eligibility database
Eligibility is not based only on owning a vehicle. Applicants must provide the required CNIC, vehicle registration information, province and registration date, and the information is subject to government verification.
Fuel Scheme Registration Through 9771
One of the main features of the programme is its SMS-based registration system.
According to the Ministry of IT and Telecommunication, registration is a one-time process and is open nationwide. Applicants can register by sending their required vehicle and identification information to 9771.
How to Register for Rs. 100 Petrol Relief
Follow these steps:
Step 1: Open the SMS application on the mobile SIM registered in your own name.
Step 2: Enter the registration details in this format:
REG CNIC VehicleNumber ProvinceLetter RegistrationDate
Step 3: Send the SMS to:
9771
For example:
REG 3520212345671 ABC123 P 15032020
Use your own CNIC and the exact vehicle information associated with your registration.
Important Registration Details
Registration is designed as a one-time process, so applicants should carefully enter their information before sending the SMS. The government uses digital verification involving identity and vehicle records to determine eligibility.
How to Get the Petrol Relief Token
Registration alone is not the final step. Eligible registered users need to generate a fuel token before obtaining subsidized petrol.
Before visiting the petrol station:
- Open your mobile SMS application.
- Type TOK.
- Send it to 9771.
- Wait for the fuel token message.
- Visit an eligible petrol station.
- Show the token to the petrol station operator.
- The token is verified through the designated system before the discounted fuel is provided.
The official Ministry of IT information says two- and three-wheeler tokens cover 5 litres and are valid for 7 days, while car tokens cover 10 litres and are valid for 10 days.
Each token provides Rs. 100 per litre relief. This means a 5-litre token can provide Rs. 500 in relief, while a 10-litre token can provide Rs. 1,000 in relief.
When Did the Fuel Relief Scheme Start?
The programme was introduced through a phased rollout.
According to the Ministry of IT and Telecommunication, registration opened nationwide, while token generation and redemption initially began in Islamabad during the night of September 14–15, 2026.
The fuel-token system was then scheduled for nationwide implementation from the night of September 16–17, 2026, covering the rest of Pakistan as well as Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan.
Reports on September 16 also confirmed that subsidized petrol was being provided to registered citizens at fuel stations across Islamabad under the programme.
What Is the Petrol Price and How Does the Rs. 100 Relief Work?
Petrol prices have been changing frequently, so readers should check the latest officially notified rate rather than relying on an older figure in a blog post.
For example, the petrol price was Rs. 375.82 per litre on September 12, 2026, according to Radio Pakistan’s report on the government’s petroleum price revision.
Because fuel prices have subsequently changed, the Rs. 100 relief should be understood as a fixed relief amount against the eligible quota, rather than a permanent nationwide reduction in the official petrol price.
In other words, eligible users do not receive Rs. 100 off every litre they purchase. The discount applies only to the litres covered by their monthly scheme entitlement.
How Much Can You Save Each Month?
The maximum monthly saving depends on your vehicle category.
For a motorcycle or eligible three-wheeler:
20 litres × Rs. 100 = Rs. 2,000 maximum monthly relief
For an eligible car up to 800cc:
30 litres × Rs. 100 = Rs. 3,000 maximum monthly relief
Therefore, the maximum stated benefit is Rs. 2,000 per month for eligible two- and three-wheelers and Rs. 3,000 per month for eligible cars up to 800cc.
How to Check Petrol Subsidy Eligibility
The safest way to verify eligibility is to use the government’s designated registration and verification process.
Applicants should make sure that:
- Their CNIC information is correct.
- The mobile SIM is registered in their own name.
- Vehicle registration information is entered correctly.
- The vehicle falls within an eligible category.
- The vehicle information matches government records.
- They follow the official SMS procedure.
The registration system uses digital records to verify applicants and their vehicles before the fuel relief is provided.
Is the Scheme Available Across Pakistan?
Yes. The programme has been designed for nationwide implementation.
The rollout began in Islamabad before expanding to other parts of Pakistan. The official announcement also includes AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan in the nationwide rollout.
The phased implementation means that the exact availability of token redemption can depend on the rollout stage and the participating fuel stations.
Important Warning About Fake Petrol Scheme Websites
Because the Rs. 100 petrol relief programme has attracted considerable public attention, applicants should be careful about fake registration pages and fraudulent messages.
Do not provide your sensitive banking information to anyone claiming that it is required to receive petrol relief.
Never share:
- ATM PIN
- Bank account password
- Internet banking password
- Mobile wallet PIN
- OTP
- Debit or credit card PIN
- Other confidential banking credentials
If a website or social-media account asks you to pay money for guaranteed approval, treat it as suspicious and verify the information through official government channels.
