What is the Punjab petrol subsidy?
It is a provincial relief run by the Government of Punjab. Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz announced it on 3 April 2026 for motorbike owners in Punjab. Under the announcement, an eligible owner can get 20 litres of petrol every month at a discounted rate. Applications opened the next day, 4 April 2026.
This is a Punjab-only scheme with its own channels. It is not the same as the federal PM Fuel Relief Scheme, which has a different registration method. If you want the federal scheme, read our federal application guide instead.
How to apply for the Punjab petrol subsidy online
There are three official ways to apply. Use one of them. Each is run by the Punjab government, and none of them charges an agent fee.
Maryam Ko Batayen app
The Punjab government’s own app. Install it only from the official app store listing, never from a link in a message. See what the MKB app can do.
Web portal
mkb.punjab.gov.pk. Check the address bar before you type anything. Our Maryam Ko Batain portal guide explains it.
Helpline 1000
Call from any phone if you cannot use the app or portal, or to confirm your eligibility first.
Step by step
-
Pick one official Punjab channel
Use only the Maryam Ko Batayen app, the web portal mkb.punjab.gov.pk, or helpline 1000. These are the channels the Punjab government announced.
-
Keep your CNIC and motorcycle details ready
Have your own CNIC and your motorcycle’s registration details with you. The official channel tells you exactly which details it needs.
-
Apply through that channel yourself
Follow the steps the app, portal or helpline gives you. Never hand your CNIC or OTP to an agent or an unofficial website.
-
Save any reference and check your status
Note any reference number you receive. Check your status on the same channel, or call helpline 1000.
What to confirm on the official channel first
Published reports disagree on four points. We do not guess, so ask the Maryam Ko Batayen app or helpline 1000 about these before you apply:
- The money: whether the discount is a fixed amount off each litre or a fixed price per litre, and so how much you save each month.
- Engine size: which motorcycles qualify. Reports give different cc limits.
- How you receive it: reports describe different methods. The official channel will tell you how the relief reaches you.
- Whether it is still open: we found no official notice of an extension or a closing date.
Avoid fake Punjab petrol subsidy sites
- No website other than mkb.punjab.gov.pk can register you. Sites with an “online application form” that asks for your CNIC are not official.
- Never share your OTP, PIN or password with anyone, including callers who say they are from the government.
- Registration through the official channels does not need an agent. Anyone asking for a fee to “approve” you is a scammer.
- 9771 is not a Punjab channel. Do not send Punjab applications there.
mkb.org.pk never asks for your CNIC, phone number or any personal details.
