In the national capital, Delhi, petrol is priced at ₹94.77 per litre, while diesel is being sold at ₹87.67 per litre.

Petrol prices in key cities

Across major metropolitan cities, petrol prices are as follows:

Cities	Price
Delhi	₹94.77 per litre
Mumbai	₹103. 49 per litre
Kolkata	₹104.99 per litre
Chennai	₹100.79 per litre
Hyderabad	₹107.45 per litre
Bengaluru	₹102. 90 per litre

Diesel prices across cities

Diesel rates also remain unchanged in major cities:

Cities	Price
Delhi	₹ 87.67 per litre
Mumbai	₹90.03 per litre
Kolkata	₹92.03 per litre
Chennai	₹92. 48 per litre
Hyderabad	₹95.70 per litre
Bengaluru	₹90.99 per litre

While public sector oil companies have kept prices stable, private retailers have increased fuel rates. On April 1, Shell India raised petrol prices by ₹7.41 per litre and diesel by ₹25.01 per litre.

Earlier, Nayara had also increased petrol prices by ₹5 per litre and diesel by ₹3 per litre.

State-owned companies, including Indian Oil Corporation, Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited, and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited, have not revised fuel prices since April 2022, despite the sector being deregulated over a decade ago.

The continued freeze in fuel prices has resulted in financial strain for public sector oil marketing companies. Losses are estimated to be around ₹18 per litre on petrol and ₹35 per litre on diesel.
