Petrol Rate Today: Why The Steady Rates, And What About Global Markets

So, here’s the thing, the fuel rates have been holding their ground for quite some time now. You know, like when you’re waiting for the auto to move in traffic, just stuck. Across all the big cities, from Delhi to Mumbai, the cost of petrol and diesel is the same as it was back in March. That’s a long stretch, especially when you see the international market doing its up-and-down thing. People are hoping that something will shift soon, but it’s a waiting game right now.

City by City, What You’re Paying

Let’s break it down, city by city, so you know exactly what you’re looking at. In Delhi, petrol is sitting at ₹94.72 per litre, and diesel is ₹87.62. In Mumbai, you’re paying ₹103.44 for petrol and ₹89.97 for diesel. Kolkata sees petrol at ₹103.94 and diesel at ₹90.76. Down in Chennai, it’s ₹100.85 for petrol and ₹92.44 for diesel. Bengaluru has petrol at ₹102.86 and diesel at ₹88.94. Even in Lucknow and Noida, the prices are holding steady, with petrol and diesel hovering around the mid-nineties and high eighties, respectively. You can see, everywhere is in a same situation.

Quick Check, Right From Home

Now, if you’re like me, you want to know the latest prices before you head to the pump. Good news is, you don’t have to drive around to find out. The oil companies, like Indian Oil and BPCL, update their rates every morning. You can check their websites, of course. But, there’s an even simpler way. Just send an SMS! For Indian Oil, type “RSP [city code]” and send it to 9224992249. If you’re with BPCL, send “RSP” to 9223112222. You’ll get the latest rates right on your phone. It’s a handy trick, especially when you’re in a hurry.

Global Market, Local Impact

What’s happening in the global oil market has a big influence on what we pay here. Even though the prices are stable right now, any big changes internationally could affect us. Think of it like when the vegetable prices go up at the local market because of a shortage somewhere else. We’re all connected. So, while we’re waiting for some relief at the pump, it’s worth keeping an eye on what’s happening around the world. It will be intresting to see if the rate will be same for long time.
