Petrol, diesel prices today: Fuel prices remain unchanged; check out rates across metros

Petrol and diesel prices remained unchanged across metros on Tuesday as state oil marketing companies put a full stop on price hike for the past one month. On Tuesday, petrol costs Rs 80.43 per litre in Delhi and Rs 87.19 per litre in Mumbai. Diesel costs Rs 73.56 per litre in Delhi and Rs 80.11 per litre in Mumbai.

At present, diesel rates are cheapest in Delhi across India because of the recent decision by the Delhi government to cut VAT by Rs 8.36 per litre.

Earlier, the Delhi government hiked VAT on diesel from 16.75 per cent to 30 per cent. The May 5 VAT hike translated into steepest ever price increase of Rs 7.10 per litre in diesel. Until July 29, diesel rates in the national capital surged to Rs 81.94 per litre.
