Tahir • October 6, 2026 • Pakistan

Gas loadshedding has intensified in different parts of Karachi, with domestic consumers facing scheduled supply suspensions during morning, afternoon and nighttime hours.

Under the latest Karachi gas loadshedding schedule, gas supply is available during specific daily windows, while consumers in several areas experience interruptions during periods of high demand.

Karachi gas loadshedding schedule

According to the current schedule, gas supply suspensions for domestic consumers are expected during these hours:

  • Morning: 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM

  • Afternoon: 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM

  • Night: 10:00 PM to 5:30 AM the next day

Gas supply generally resumes during the remaining hours, including early morning, midday and evening periods.

Areas affected by Karachi gas loadshedding

The gas shortage and scheduled loadshedding are affecting several parts of Karachi. Areas reporting longer or more frequent interruptions include Federal B Area, North Nazimabad, Malir, Khokhrapar, Landhi, Orangi Town and North Karachi.

Residents in Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Nazimabad, Garden and Liaquatabad have also reported disruptions in gas supply.

Consumers in affected localities are advised to plan cooking and other household activities around the available gas supply hours, as timings may vary depending on local supply conditions and demand.

On the other hand, Karachi continues to face prolonged electricity load-shedding, with residents in several areas reporting extended and, at times, unannounced power cuts amid growing public frustration and protests.

The official K-Electric load-shed schedule shows multiple areas across the city are subjected to four load-shedding cycles a day, with several feeders facing around 12 hours of scheduled outages.

According to the schedule applicable in November 2026, load-shedding is determined at the feeder level based on electricity losses, including theft and non-payment of bills. K-Electric also notes that the timings may vary slightly.

Areas facing prolonged power cuts

Several feeders in Baldia, Lyari, Liaquatabad, Korangi, Malir, Gulistan-e-Johar and other parts of Karachi have four separate load-shedding cycles listed in the schedule.

For example, the Mominabad feeder in Baldia has outages scheduled from 7:35am to 10:35am, 11:35am to 3:05pm, 4:05pm to 6:35pm and 8:05pm to 11:05pm — adding up to around 12 hours of scheduled cuts.

In Lyari, several feeders, including Lyari Telephone Exchange, Alvi Road and Jumma Baloch, have four three-hour load-shedding cycles spread throughout the day.

Similarly, several Liaquatabad feeders face four daily outages, with some schedules extending into late-night hours.
