In India, petrol and diesel prices undergo daily revision, which is carried out by OMCs such as Bharat Petroleum, Hindustan Petroleum, and Indian Oil. The rates, whether new or uniform, are announced at 6am each day.

Also, the prices vary from state-to-state. This is due to factors such as value-added tax (VAT), freight charges, local taxes etc.
