Why Petrol and Diesel Prices Differ Across Cities
Fuel prices are not identical throughout India. The final retail price depends on several components, including the cost of crude oil, central excise duty, dealer commission and state-level taxes.
Petrol and diesel are outside the GST framework, meaning state taxes can have a significant impact on the price consumers pay at fuel stations.
Oil companies revise retail fuel prices daily, with the applicable rates generally taking effect from 6 am. Changes in international crude prices, currency movements and taxation can influence the retail price.
Check Fuel Prices Before Refuelling
Since petrol and diesel rates can vary by location, motorists should check the applicable city-wise rate before refuelling. On September 28, the latest available figures indicate that prices in several major cities remained stable compared with the previous day.
