Here is a list of petrol and diesel prices in other cities of the country:

CITY	PETROL PRICE (Rs/LITRE)	DIESEL PRICE (Rs/LITRE)

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had cut excise duty on petrol by ₹8 per litre and ₹6 per litre on diesel in May 2022. State-run oil marketing companies (OMCs) like Indian Oil, Hindustan Petroleum and Bharat Petroleum change fuel prices daily at 6 am as per the global rates.

Oil prices extended gains for a second session on Friday as the prospect of lower exports from Russia offset rising inventories in the United States.

For the week, oil prices are slightly lower, after the previous week's about 4% declines, dragged by concerns about rising interest rates that could strengthen the dollar as well as a ninth straight week of U.S. crude stocks build.
