Petrol, Diesel Price Today: Considering the high dependency of various industries on fuel, petrol and diesel prices are monitored closely across the country. Without much fluctuation, the fuel prices have remained unchanged for more than a month now.

The last revision in the prices of fuel took place on May 21 when Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced a reduction in the e central excise duty on it. The duty was slashed by Rs 8 per litre for petrol and Rs 6 per litre for diesel, bringing much respite to the consumers.

Currently, the petrol rates in major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Chennai are hovering near Rs 100 per litre while the diesel price has remained above Rs 90 per litre mark in most cities.

On July 2, the price of a litre of petrol in Delhi is Rs 96.72 while the diesel is selling at Rs 89.62 per litre. In Mumbai, petrol is priced at Rs 111.35 per litre and diesel is selling at Rs 97.28 per litre.

The prices remain nearly the same for Chennai too where a litre of petrol is costs Rs 102.63 while diesel price stands at Rs 94.24 per litre.

Several factors contribute to the fluctuation in the rates of petrol and diesel across the country. These include the international crude oil prices, global inflation, and foreign exchange rates, among others. Moreover, the prices don’t remain the same in all states of the country as freight charges and local taxes like Value-added Tax (VAT) differ from state to state.
