The prices of petrol and diesel differ from state to state as the retail price is finalised after adding local taxes, which include VAT (value-added tax), freight charges, and so on.
The fuel rates are regularly revised in India by public sector oil marketing companies (OMCs). The last major change in the petrol and diesel prices all over India was witnessed in May. Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced that the Centre has slashed the excise duty on both petrol and diesel. Following the announcement, the price of petrol dropped by Rs 8 per litre and diesel price fell by Rs 6 per litre across the country. Ever since, the fuel prices have not been revised.
