Factors behind fuel prices
Fuel costs have barely budged since May 2022, thanks to earlier tax cuts by both central and state governments.
What you pay also depends on where you live—different states have different taxes, so the price can vary a lot from city to city.
Plus, things like refining costs and how much fuel people are actually buying all play a part in the final number you see at the pump.
