Petrol And Diesel Prices Announced: Check Latest Rates In Delhi, Mumbai, And Other Cities

Fuel prices in India remained unchanged for yet another day on Wednesday, February 15. The prices of petrol and diesel have maintained a steady trend for nearly nine months now. The last time fuel prices changed was in May last year after the centre announced an excise duty on petrol and diesel of Rs 8 and 6 respectively. Despite a global slowdown in crude oil prices, the prices of automotive fuels like petrol and diesel have remained unchanged as oil corporations used this opportunity to make up for their past losses.

The prices of petrol and diesel are updated every day at six in the morning, reflecting the daily changes. A variety of factors, including Value Added Tax (VAT), freight expenses, local taxes, and more, have an impact on fuel prices among states.
