Petrol-Diesel Prices Today (August 7, 2026): Crude oil prices in the international market are witnessing constant fluctuations. Despite this, retail prices of petrol and diesel in the country have remained stable for a long time. This raises a common question: why don't petrol and diesel prices change daily when crude oil becomes more expensive or cheaper? Let’s find out the current rates in your city.

Why aren't petrol and diesel prices changing?

Petrol and diesel prices do not depend solely on the cost of crude oil. They also factor in excise duty, state government VAT, dealer commissions, transportation expenses, and other costs. Consequently, minor increases or decreases in crude oil prices do not immediately impact the rates paid by consumers.

Will petrol and diesel prices drop?

If crude oil prices in the international market remain low for an extended period and the government adjusts taxes, petrol and diesel prices could decrease in the coming days. Conversely, if crude oil becomes more expensive, there is a possibility that prices could rise.

Why are new rates issued daily?

Oil companies update petrol and diesel rates every day at 6 AM. Even if there is no change in prices, a new list is issued daily so that adjustments can be made immediately if required based on market conditions.
