Petrol, Diesel Prices On February 8: Check Latest Rates In Delhi, Mumbai And Other Cities

India’s petrol and diesel prices remained the same on February 8, continuing a period of eight months of stability, despite fluctuations in the global crude oil market. This is due to Oil Marketing Corporations (OMCs) imposing a price freeze.

The last time fuel prices in India altered was on May 21, 2020, when excise duty on petrol was cut by Rs 8 and diesel by Rs 6. Experts expect fuel prices to remain unchanged till such time the OMCs recover the losses accrued in the past couple of quarters.
