Why haven't prices changed today?
In India, petrol and diesel prices depend on several factors, including the price of crude oil in the international market, the rupee's exchange rate against the dollar, freight costs, and taxes levied by both central and state governments. Despite recent volatility in global crude oil prices, oil companies have not altered retail prices for the time being.
Prices to be updated at 6 AM
State-owned oil companies release new petrol and diesel rates every day at 6 AM. If there is a price revision, the new rates come into effect immediately.
What to expect in the coming days?
Petrol and diesel prices could change in the near future if there is a significant surge or drop in international crude oil prices or a shift in the rupee's exchange rate.
