On Monday, the prices of petrol and diesel are unchanged across major cities, which means that for 440 days, or nearly 63 weeks, fuel rates have been largely steady across the nation. This uniformity – except in individual cases – has been maintained since May 21 last year, when the previous pan-India revision to fuel prices was made.

In India, the rates of petrol and diesel are decided by oil marketing companies (OMCs) such as Bharat Petroleum, Hindustan Petroleum, and Indian Oil, which review the prices on a daily basis. The rates, whether revised or unchanged, are announced at 6am each day.

Why fuel rates vary from state-to-state?

This is due to factors such as value-added tax (VAT), freight charges, local charges, etc.
