Fuel prices stay the same: What's up with petrol and diesel rates?

India Dec 11, 2025

No surprises at the pump today—petrol and diesel prices across India haven't changed.
OMCs update these rates every morning at 6am tracking global oil trends and currency shifts to keep things fair.
For reference, petrol is ₹94.72/liter and diesel is ₹87.62/liter in Delhi; Mumbai pays a bit more, while Chennai sits in between.
Prices have held steady since May 2022, thanks to government tax cuts.

Why do fuel prices differ by city—and how can you check yours?

Fuel costs aren't the same everywhere because state taxes vary a lot. The final price also depends on international oil rates and currency swings.
If you want to know your city's latest rate without any hassle, just text your city code to numbers from Indian Oil, BPCL, or HPCL—super easy way to stay updated!
