Why do petrol and diesel prices vary across cities?

Petrol and diesel prices are not uniform across all cities in the country. A major reason for this is the variation in taxes levied by different states. Additionally, central government levies, petrol pump dealer commissions, transportation costs, and the price of crude oil influence the final price of petrol.

Why are prices determined at 6 AM?

A system of daily price revision for petrol and diesel has been in place in India since June 2017. Oil companies release new prices for petrol and diesel every day at 6 AM. However, if there are no significant fluctuations in international crude oil prices or other associated costs, petrol prices may remain stable for several days.
