As of March 13, 2025, fuel prices in India have remained stable, with no significant changes reported in recent months. The consistent pricing is attributed to a combination of stable international crude oil prices and domestic tax structures.
Petrol Prices:
- New Delhi: ₹94.77 per liter
- Mumbai: ₹103.50 per liter
- Bangalore: ₹102.92 per liter
- Hyderabad: ₹107.46 per liter

- Bangalore: ₹88.99 per liter
- Hyderabad: ₹95.70 per liter
- Chennai: ₹92.48 per liter
- Ahmedabad: ₹90.17 per liter
- Kolkata: ₹91.82 per liter
These prices have remained unchanged for the past three months, reflecting a period of stability in the fuel market.
Fuel prices in India are influenced by several factors, including international crude oil prices, currency exchange rates, and the tax structure imposed by both central and state governments. The stability in current fuel prices suggests a balance between these factors, providing consumers with consistent pricing at the pump.
It’s important to note that while the central government imposes excise duty uniformly across the country, state governments levy Value Added Tax (VAT) at varying rates. This variation leads to differences in fuel prices across states. For instance, Andhra Pradesh currently has one of the highest petrol prices at ₹109.42 per liter, while the Andaman and Nicobar Islands offer the lowest at ₹82.46 per liter.
