Petrol Diesel Prices Today: The price of crude oil has once again started touching the sky in the international market. On Monday, the price of Brent crude oil in the global market reached $ 120 per barrel. This is the highest in the last two months. The price of Brent crude in the global market on Monday morning was $ 120.10 per barrel, while WTI has reached $ 115.6 per barrel. By the way, when the state-owned oil companies released new rates of oil on Monday, there was no increase in it. After giving relief in excise duty, there was no change in the prices of petrol and diesel for the eighth consecutive day on 30th May. That is, despite the cost of Brent crude in the global market, the prices of petrol and diesel in India have remained stable.
Earlier, the central government had reduced excise duty on petrol and diesel, while the states had cut VAT. Because of this there was a big drop in fuel prices. But if the prices in the international market continue to rise like this, then it will be difficult to control their prices in India as well.
What was today’s price?
The price of petrol in Delhi is Rs 96.72 and diesel Rs 89.62 per litre, in Mumbai the price of petrol is Rs 111.35 and diesel Rs 97.28 per litre, in Kolkata petrol is Rs 106.03 and diesel Rs 92.76 per liter, in Chennai petrol is Rs 102.63 and diesel is Rs. The price has reached Rs 94.24 per liter.
When and how does the price change in the country?
Petrol and diesel prices are fixed daily in India at 6 am. If there are changes, the new rates will be applicable from 6 am. After adding excise duty, dealer commission, VAT and other things to the price of petrol and diesel, its price becomes almost double of the original price.
