Petrol and diesel rates stayed the same on Sunday, continuing an eight-month trend of price stability. Delhi charges ₹96.72 for a litre of petrol and ₹89.62 for a litre of diesel. Mumbai charges ₹106.31 for a litre of petrol and ₹94.27 for a litre of diesel. The most recent nationwide adjustment was made on May 21 by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, who lowered the excise duty on petrol and diesel by Rs. 8 per litre and Rs. 6 per litre, respectively.
Prices differ from state to state because of a number of variables, such as the Value Added Tax (VAT) levied, freight costs, local taxes, etc.
