Petrol Diesel Today: Petrol and diesel rates remained unchanged for the 89th consecutive day across the country on Friday, August 19, 2022.
The prices of the two auto fuels have not altered across India in nearly three months. They were simultaneously last revised across the country on May 22 when the central government had cut the excise duty on petrol by 8 per litre, and 6 rupees per litre on diesel. Since then fuel prices have been unchanged across the country except in Maharashtra where the state government on July 14 reduced the value-added tax (VAT) on petrol and diesel by Rs 5 and Rs 3, respectively.
