Petrol and diesel in Punjab will get costlier by 90 paise per litre with the Bhagwant Mann-led Punjab government on Friday deciding to impose a cess on the fuel, to generate additional revenue.
This was decided in a meeting of the state cabinet here on Friday.
Cabinet Minister Aman Arora, while giving details about the Cabinet decisions, said the need for such a cess was being felt for some time.
